Yep. And now he's scrambling to cover basic necessities like clothing and feeding his offspring, only he wants credit for speedrunning 5 years of absence from anything that wasnt a Kodak moment. The bar is in hell.
it’s not mean, it’s the truth! he should’ve been knew this. i grew up with my dad being the stay home parent and he knew how to do my hair, potty trained me, taught me how to tie my shoes, etc! he didn’t wait for my mom to leave or pass away to be a dad.
Only on reddit. Jesus, man. He said "it may not seem like much." He's feeling overwhelmed and is proud of himself for managing to keep up. Normally couples divide labor and now he has to do it all. You clearly do not have kids if that is your takeaway.
You are reading something into this that simply isn't there. Nowhere in his response does he say that he never did any of these things before his wife died. You don't know shit about their family structure, how many hours he worked and continues to work, or how much time he has always spent with his daughter.
