Every home that is struggling with equality of invisible labor has a conversation they are struggling with that takes on different flavors, which one are you struggling with the most?

I heard yesterday there was a survey for a study regarding. School/cMp communications, one woman got 94 in a week as the default parent, who manages these in your home?

Ive been thinking about the journey I’m on and what I’m striving for and trying to identify where pride and confidence guides me. I think I’m often striving to be as good a partner and the best parent I can be, and the why underneath that is I feel like that’s a life worth living, where I’ll get to my death bed and feel like I gave the best parts of me to the right people in my life. I’d love to hear y’all articulate what y’all are striving for and the guiding “why” underneath?

I remember my first four fathers days wanting to be about me as a person more so than me as a father in my relationship with my child. I select all day out doing other things and/or just wanting Alyssa to be the default parent. This year we had grandparent support and 3 kids vs 1, I noticed that I just wanted to spend time w/our 4 y/o as it didn’t always feel like I got to invest in that relationship the same way. I’m curious how the seasons of fatherhood have driven the interest for how to spend fathersday for yall?

I’m working on chapter 1 and curious if ppl have a phrase they resonate with more. I think much of society expects men to being mostly emotionless, besides anger, resulting in lack of emotional literacy. I might call this being a rock or her rock. Is a phrasing that feels more familiar?
