I was angry at my husband for making us move across the world. I missed my mom. I lost my sense of identity. I hated talking about kids. All anyone wanted to know was how the kids were. No one cared about me. No one wanted to talk about politics or entertainment. It was like all of a sudden, I had become a void of a human

I raised my hand and said, "I can't be a stay-at-home father."

He went off to the office so he didn't have to deal with the kids. Guess the other dude is the mom.

Oh, and this entire article is an excerpt from a book. This was also an ad.

I think people anticipate that moving to another predominantly English-speaking, developed nation is going to be the same. No ma'am. It's completely different food, entertainment, and news sources. People act differently. On top of that, not having any friends and leaving my job to be a full-time parent were traumatizing.

"The food in this other highly developed place with the same language and near identical culture was a bit different. I was traumatized."

"postnatal depression" the disrespect for women to use that word as a bloke unironically.

If you were postnatal and shoved a baby through your dick you wouldn't have needed a surrogate who most likely does have postnatal depression.

Guy was literally just sad at the realization that his ore-baby life was over and that babies are the absolute fucking worst. Whenever a guy says he enjoys his baby I either distrust them or just assume they're lying. Don't get me wrong; around 1 they start being fun, but before that, they're the fucking worst. Expensive tamagochis.

The successful nuclear family doesnt consist of two degenerates.

I hope all their kids grow up to be straight.

They'll probably just grow up to be molested, sadly.
