Do you mean child rearing or child bearing?

Bearing! Thank you for the clarification

Name and shame, although are you sure they did that? I think it's pretty typical to give 12 weeks for parental bonding, and 6-10 weeks for recovering from giving birth.

12 weeks is a long time for someone who didn’t do the push. Grow up Count Chocula.

This is the exact kind of attitude that produces dads who don’t know their kids’ allergies, teachers, doctors, etc lmao

Yea, but technically, who the “non child rearing parent” can change depending on the circumstances right?
