Fathers need to do more; mothers need to let them

Link: Get Ready to Step Up, Dad - washingtonpost.com.

A great article from the March 25 Washington Post about how mothers and fathers set up their parenting roles, and how fathers need to get, or take, more responsibility and equal dignity in dealing with children, especially as women gain equality or superiority in the workplace. It quotes some of the wisest experts out there.

Quote: "If the latter, some things are going to have to change, not the least of which are women's attitudes toward their men as parents. A male friend who has three children put it this way, "Women have a way of making a father feel like the paralegal to her lawyer.""
