#considering that i'm 90% my dad never changed a single diaper of mine

[mare-the-silly-scroingle]

whenever i have something rocky going on w my mom i think about that one time my dad sat me and my sister down and was like you have to be nice to your mom always because she does so much for you kids and you’re her world. which is a fair point but it would have been more well taken if my father was useful at anything and not actively part of the reason why my mom has to do so much for us

#i think i can get a little snippish with my mom #considering that i'm 90% my dad never changed a single diaper of mine #and he is such a critic despite barely knowing how to cook for himself much less GOOD food #and still unable to grocery shop on his own. like jesus fucking christ dude #sure it's not great when me and my mom fight but at least i am useful #dont rb #neg #like my dad is great at providing me intellectual stimulation and ocasional praise #and he is very good at his job and scholarly matters #and he is absolutely fucking horrible at anything domestic whatsoever #i genuinely think part of the reason why my mom and dad never split or anything is because my mom is too self sufficient #like she can do everything herself so him not doing anything isn't a major issue #and he helps sometimes like i'm being a little hard on him here but #most of it is like. i'm actively busyy can you drop the kids off. can you buy these 2 grocery items. can you lift this heavy thing #while my mom deep cleans the entire house and cooks every mean #meal*
