Almost all women believe that the child is a mothermore important than dad. Of course, they are right - this is a purely physiological truth, against which you will not trample. Therefore, often, especially in Russia, mothers gently but steadily push fathers away from parenting. Abroad, this tendency of dads is so annoying that fathers are united, and - "Do not forget dad." They are trying with all their might to convey to the public the idea that the father is not some babysitter who can occasionally be assigned to sit with the child, but the parent. Even so - Parent. With a capital letter. No worse than mom. But it is abroad. In our country this is still far away. But the trend has already begun. Proof of this - the cry of the soul of a single father, which we discovered on the Internet. The young father anonymously told the portal "" what kind of discrimination mothers face almost every day.

Of course, I’m not sitting around doing nothing – I found a part-time job at home. My income dropped, but I couldn’t think of anything else. My mother also helps me with the baby,” the man begins his story. The father walks with the child himself: he puts the baby in a sling and goes to wind kilometers through the parks. Walking for a long time is hard. But sitting down on a bench can even be scary: as soon as you sit next to a mother with a child, it begins…“For some reason, every young mother is sure that she is obliged to share her motherly wisdom with me: “Oh, you’re carrying him wrong. He’s so pressed. Where is his mother?”, “Are you… doing vaccinations? Don’t you know that…”, “Breast milk is better than formula. "Why don't you breastfeed him?" the man quotes the shockingly tactless questions of curious ladies. "I noticed that every I-mother is obliged to drive me crazy with the "correct" upbringing of a child at a time when her own child smears his face with cat feces or, for some unknown reason, smashes someone else's scooter on the asphalt." The father's irritation shines through in every line. However, it is quite understandable. It is not only the father here - the mother would also be torn apart with anger. According to the father, he has compiled a kind of memo especially for such curious and annoying ones. And when they pester him with unsolicited advice and recommendations, pester him with questions, he hands these template answers to the interlocutor. "All the answers to standard questions are there. For example: “I feed with formula because I can’t express milk from my breast,” “Yes, I know about the consequences of DPT, but I’ll vaccinate my child anyway,” and so on,” says the father. According to him, mothers are terribly offended by such a reaction. But the man is only happy about it. “This is the best guarantee that I will no longer be treated as a clumsy person,” he explains. And he appeals to all mothers of the planet: “Girls, stop being idiotic. If a person has short hair, no protruding breasts or other female sexual characteristics, this does not mean that he does not know how to take care of children.”
