Who is the best at inventing games and making Baby laugh out loud? It’s Dad, of course!
However, many fathers seem to shy away when it comes to changing Pitchoune or attending crèche meetings… Laziness or discouragement?
Early childhood: a world that is a little too feminine
On the occasion of a little walk with Pitchoune, what man has not been forced to realize that “paternity” was not obvious?
In public places, the safety instructions for toddlers are systematically illustrated by a child with his mother …
More inconveniently, the nursery schools are still in the ladies’ toilets. As a result, you have to do the voyeur to be able to change Pitchoune!
And these are just a few examples among many! In short, we cannot say that dads are really encouraged in their task …
When mom defends her territory …
The father’s place with his child depends in part on that which the mother will grant him : this supposes that she gives up her feeling of all power in relation to the baby and that she accepts to share her power with you… Which is sometimes far from being won!
Indeed, if some mothers love to complain about the ineffectiveness of men regarding baby care, it seems that they do not support the intrusion of the father in their “reserved domain” rather badly.:
How many men are kindly fired from their occupations when they want to meddle with Baby’s toilet?
Not to mention the sarcastic remarks about their sartorial tastes for Lea!
In these conditions, goodwill is sometimes quickly discouraged, especially when mom feels that she is irreplaceable. Fortunately, these catastrophic scenarios are not unanimous: in most cases, the distribution of tasks is carried out smoothly, establishing a good balance around Baby.
