  • I get that my husband may not be comfortable with the thought of watching a young child for several hours a day alone.  Guess what?  I'm not totally comfortable with it myself yet.  But, being an adult means facing your fears and steppin

  • Call me cynical, but based on the OP, i don't think that this is a case of the husband not feeling "comfortable" taking care of an infant alone. This is a case of him just being lazy. Look, I get that some men don't take easily to childcare. Some women

  • Gender roles do vary by the couple. I would NEVER have kids with a man afraid of watching his own child. We both expect a balance of working and parenting from both of us. f I can swing it financially, he'd like to be a stay at home dad. II know all o

  • OP - first, I'm sorry you're in this situation. There seems to be a number of issues but, to keep it short, I agree that you'd be wise to see a divorce attorney. I'm really sorry. Your H is a chronic liar, refuses to parent his children and is trying t
