[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you need to give it more time.  Right now you know that he hates parenting an infant.  Okay.  Many people feel this way.  How is he going to be with a 6 yo?  Will he be spending hours in the backyard kicking soccer goals with them and coach their team?  Will he be more interested in a kid?  I think you don't know yet.

Mom of teens and twenty somethings here. This describes my family to a T. Babyhood was all on my plate. But my spouse is a great parent to older kids. I barely have to be responsible for anything now.  I don’t think i minded it as much as OP though. And we had a lot of give and take with chores and daycare drop off and we didn’t always have the same days off work. Just chiming in to reinforce what PP says about some people parenting better at different stages. [/quote]

Maybe? But I wouldn’t expect this. There are a lot of not fun parts to parenting at every age. It’s called taking responsibility. If his notion of bringing up a baby is taking it to fantasy football I don’t think he’s going to be tossing a ball around with a six year old or doing math homework with his ten year old.[/quote]
