[quote=Anonymous]New Poster here.  OP, I haven't read through all 6 pages of this.  I implore you to think long and hard about having a 2nd child with this man.  If he is unwilling (and I say unwilling, because he is perfectly capable.  There is nothing about being a female that makes us more capable of brushing a child's teeth) to be as active in the caring of your child as you need him to be, he is not suddenly going to change his behavior with the workload is doubled.

I made it VERY clear to my husband what I expected about our partnership before we started our family.  In our case, we both work full time and I wanted a full partnership in the raising of our children.  He absolutely has taken on his share of the responsibility.  But if he hadn't - there would have have been a second child.

I know this is harsh, but it probably needs to be harsh.  If you have a second child with this man, you can not complain about his lack of involvement.  You should blame yourself for being a fool.
