[QUOTE="Lil, post: 633500, member: 17309"] I have to agree. I KNOW it's hard on a father too. But I just really think it's harder on a mom. I know that I have a harder time with all this than my husband does. He and I have talked about this. What he said was, from the time a baby is conceived, the mom takes care of them. She protects, she babies, she nurtures. That's her job, to protect her baby and while a man does that too, his job changes as they grow, from protecting the child to teaching them to be adults. I'm a mom. I still want to protect, I want to help. It's what I do. If he's hungry I feed him, if he's cold I tell him to put on a jacket, if he's upset I try to cheer him up. Dad is way more likely to tell him to cook his own meal and man-up and grow a pair. It's clear you and your wife have other issues too. I hope that with this slowly resolving, you can continue to work on them and things improve. [/QUOTE]
