@lindseygurk: For real though. I’m not trying to complain, I’m trying to problem solve here… and I got nuthin’. My husband is an AMAZING father and should be praised for that… but not because he takes care of our kids’ basic human needs. 🤦🏻♀️ #momtalk #motherhood #MomsofTikTok #momlife

PREACH ❤️👏🏻 I feel it a lot when I’m working too. “Who’s watching your kids?” Not once has my husband been asked that while working

Next time instead of thank you say “what do you mean?”. They’ll have to explain and you can say “that’s just parenting”

“Oh is dad babysitting?” Is so infuriating and I’m not even a parent 🙄

one of the admins from my kids pre-k told my husband and I that we "make a great team" and that was one of the best compliments I've ever had

My mom was the worst about this. Husband would change a diaper and she would go on and on. I just started asking her where my cookie is for basic pare

Abby Lynn :
Have your husband respond, "I'm only half of a great team." Or something like that. He ropes you into the compliment and emphasizes the partnership.

Emily Arrington :
My way of “changing” things is every time I see a couple out, I compliment them both or their teamwork. Hoping others see my example and do the same.

I might not be a parent but I totally agree the double standard is ridiculous

Annalee :
YES!!! Infuriating. And I know we don’t need the praise- but I think that’s part of the solution. Dads should be praised- IF MOM IS BEING PRAISED TOO

I get told I should be grateful that at least my son's dad's in his life and spends time with him

What we will do about it: dad answers, “thanks, I love being in an equal partnership with my wife and I love taking care of my kids the way I should”

I understand that- it’s a sad situation when moms are that under appreciate because we do it all

There are so many shitty dads that that’s the norm

I’ve had the same thing happen but the way I saw it was that this older generation is seeing how men are doing more now and they want to acknowledge..

My first place to address that would be with my husband. Why did he say “thank you” instead of saying “thanks were a good team” or “thanks my wife…

🌼 Springing Nuur 🌼 :
Best thing is if it comes from ur husband “Thank you, my wife is amazing as well and we are both doing our parental duties” etc etc. start small

I think in those moments the dad needs to say something we have to teach the older generation that it’s not cool.

My husband once took the kids to Seaworld by himself and my family still makes comments about it. You know who has the kids alone 80% of the time? Mom

Also frustrates me when people hold a door for a pregnant mom(as they should) but not for a mom pushing a stroller and walking w/ their 2yo.

Every time I’m away and someone asks me if my husband is watching the kids, I always say “no, he’s there being a dad.”

That old man said, "you're such a good Dad", because He wouldn't cut up his kids food or take the kids to the bathroom.
