It's so important for kids to experience that. I fully trust my husband to care for our kids and I don't expect him to follow my instructions. We agree on the big picture stuff but who cares if we don't do things exactly the same. Your post really articulated this so well.

Yay! What a huge relief that must be.<br /><br />I really appreciated this post as this is a topic Tim and I have discussed. We don't use terms like "babysitting" or "daddy daycare" when discussing normal parental care either.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your heart and being a part of the blogosphere!<br /><br />stephanie@metropolitanmama.netStephaniehttp://metropolitanmama.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-64528461722066514072010-12-02T14:14:48.157-08:002010-12-02T14:14:48.157-08:00Oh!

I know he is a blessing!<br /><br />I also think Linda is right about our language saying a lot. Some dads may be eager to step up to the responsibility, if they treated as capable parents & treated with respect. I know that doesn't fix all problems, though!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00616238682696645579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-86629250899175037522010-12-02T13:26:36.327-08:002010-12-02T13:26:36.327-08:00I hope that is one of the things you are thankful ...I hope that is one of the things you are thankful for in your life because not everyone has that.

I have seen lots of my friends break up family responsibilities in different ways. <br /><br />I know some couples are 50-50 when it comes to child care and others are more weighted to the woman doing most of the child care... I love how God allows us to be who we are even in parenting and family roles. <br /><br />Still, it does bother me when parents use the term babysitting when referring to their own children. What are they doing the rest of the time?LindaFayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640637058857410359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-34151382902912186782010-11-26T20:21:01.002-08:002010-11-26T20:21:01.002-08:00ps. all the pics are cute, but that last one with ...ps. all the pics are cute, but that last one with him and Gillian is SO cute.Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314577454372964927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1474479852287201750.post-34402411037340896642010-11-26T20:19:24.207-08:002010-11-26T20:19:24.207-08:00yes and AMEN! I love this post. This is something ...yes and AMEN! I love this post. This is something I think a lot of men actually need to understand and not so much the wives. I meet men all the time that have the attitude of "these are your children, I watch them for you when you need a break." I don't think they always mean for it to come off or sound that way... but the attitude of "I will watch the kids for you." is very much a baby sitter type attitude. <br /><br />I also wonder if it conveys that to your kids. Maybe its why some kids even treat Daddy's like they're not really one of the parents? <br /><br />In a similar way we wives need to be careful not to act like our husbands "get away" to work :)Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314577454372964927noreply@blogger.com
