[quote=Anonymous]You are surprised that talk about the mental load springs up on a moms board in december? LOL. Listen some things aren't really NECESSARY. PP above me going on about who chooses the christmas card outfits. Like, that is a self imposed thing we do to ourselves (I do to myself!), and like the extra curriculars, I am pretty chill and will let my kid choose their own extra curriculars. But many are not. The stuff about coats and masks and homework and doctor's appointments and potty training and behavioral issues are real and most dads are not as clued in as they could be. Add this to the holidays where women frequently feel obligated to participate in a slew of 'extra' stuff like recognizing teachers and 150 different family members and the weight starts to accumulate too heavy. Feels pretty mean to be hating on people who are struggling a bit under the weight of their responsibilities around the holidays. [/quote]
