[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, caring for an infant is not "being a parent".  If he is picking up all the other slack right now and letting you be the primary infant carer, it doesn't mean he sucks as a parent.  Newborns are newborns for a matter of months.  Not every great parent is great at every stage, and this one is REALLY short.[/quote]

I strongly disagree with your statement. Parenting is caring for your child. The rest is being a capable adult. [/quote]

Keeping a baby alive isn't parenting. But keep arguing with everyone, OP. [/quote]

+1. By all accounts my mom could not deal with having a newborn. The anxiety took over and she was paralyzed. She refused to do night feedings and seldom held me.

She was also a great mom. It's just that one short stage that overwhelmed her.[/quote]

She was actually a pretty shitty mom during that period. As is OP’s husband right now. [b]What if both parents took this attitude? [/b]The baby would die.[/quote]
