Regretful Parents: "My Stay-At-Home Husband Won't Do His Job" | Reddit Stories

In this episode, Kristen and Erika dive into a wild Reddit post from a working mom dealing with a stay-at-home husband who refuses to actually parent their 28-month-old (that's 2 years and 4 months, people!).

What We Cover:
A stay-at-home dad who won't take his toddler to the playground, feed her, or play with her
Why OP hired a house cleaner because he couldn't handle the basics
The depression and isolation that can come with being a full-time parent
Why men often aren't equipped to handle what women do every day
The importance of community and adult friendships for stay-at-home parents
Our thoughts on why this relationship is doomed

Key Moments:
The math rant about calling kids "28 months old" instead of just saying their age in years
Discussion about whether this dad was always terrible or if parenthood changed him
Why the wife can't leave even though she "could care less about him anymore"
The hypocrisy of stay-at-home dads vs stay-at-home moms and societal expectations
This episode tackles the reality of regretful parenting, gender dynamics in childcare, stay-at-home parent depression, and why some people should never have kids.
