7. Yes either men still don't help

Or they end up doing most of it with a woman who makes money and treats them like husbands in the 50's where the men have to do it all.

It took me more than one marriage to find a partner I share responsibilities without attitude about it.

But I watch my grand daughter who is the working one treat her husband badly, spending lots of time alone on weekends having fun while he is with toddlers all week and weekend. He went from being a super mellow guy in shape to overweight and depressed looking.

I told my daughter to talk with her as I am not that close to her.

People take advantage of each other and it can go both ways. And this country is doing little to foster any type of empathy and caring for others. A very selfish self centered society.
