I am a full time working mom, My husbands helps me out with a attitude that ' look i am helping you' only if he is in mood and some guest is there to show off. Otherwise every thing my responsibility inside the house, outside the house and bringing equal amount of money too. Please someone let me know how to let them understand their responsibility. Name: Namita Country: India Comment: Though Indian Fathers have changed but they cannot take the entire responsibilty of the child. Child rearing takes lots of efforts and patience. Name: Honey Country: India Comment: I think while times are changing - a majority of Indians are still "conditioned" otherwise; I'd say bringing up kids fall on moms - working or not; to make father's more receptive the cjange has to come from corporates (role which most father's associate with) Paternity leave, compulsory PTA meetings with both parents etc should be implemented Name: Radhu Country: India Comment: I am lucky that my husband understands the situtaion. I am also a working mom and he does help me out when he is at home. He plays with our daugther, gives her bath and sometimes even offers to give her food if i am busy. Since both of us share the duties, each feels much relaxed and better rather than dumping the work on one single person. Infact, the trend is changing and more and more fathers are truly accomadating the fact that they too have a role in the bringup of a child and thereby helping their wives out. Name: Venkat Country: India Comment: Fathers now a days are lot changed. I read this site regularly and check for my baby development. However i find my wife does not take my views seriously but she will consider another women views. Women actually do not know how to set the limit. They want their husbands to be involved but they also act stupid when the fathers are involved seriosly. Name: Suresh Country: India Comment: Fathers always have a willing to help to take care of the children, though it is hard to take total responsibility because of their office pressures and their patience level. But, when both parents are going for work, husbands should take equal responsibilities in care taking. Name: Help fathers Country: India Comment: In the age of the neuclear family, the role of both parents is almost an equal one. Most women also choose to work and so the fathers must pitch in and gie the woman a break. IF YOU DONOT DO YOUR JOB AS A FATHER AND MERELY SEE YOURSELF AS A MATERIALISTIC PROVIDER / bREADWINNER , YOU SHOULD GIVE YOUR SELF THAT TITLE Don't expact your child to come and call you daddy /papa etc ..... Fatherhood dosent end at matriistic provision BOND WITH KIDS and be a part of their developemnt. Name: shilpa Country: United Kingdom Comment: some times my husband helps me, but most of the time he will be tired in office and want to rest. but he loves to play with him rather than helping. he plays with him while i am working in the kitchen. Name: maya Country: India Comment: my husband thinks since he's working all day and i;m at home, he should not have to help out! but he helps when i'm tired, but doesnt take on any particular responsibility. i think, why should his work end at 6 in the evening, but mine carries on all!!!

Name: adi Country: India Comment: yes fathers are more responsible these days i see this in my hubby, my brother etc which is good Name: Tony S Country: India Comment: Yes nowadays fathers are actively involved in rearing children. But sometimes they get so involved that the mother feels left out and insecure as the kid starts feeling daddy is better than mommy. also it is good if fathers concentrate on their careers in terms of individual achievements and involve in child rearing only upto some extent. They should be fathers and not try to take the mothers place. i am currently facing this problem.
