This just in: primary caregiver more likely to remember medical details! I’m a stay-at-home dad, and I have much greater knowledge about my kids’ medical history.
As a single dad, this sucks.
The comic is utter bullshit.
Flip the man and the woman and change the text to “Can you come back? A lightbulb needs changing” and you’ve got sexism, but this is supposed to be funny because dads are bad?
of course silly, everybody knows it isn’t sexism when it’s against a man! men aren’t a systematically subjugated group which means that jokes at their expense are “punching up” and therefore have 0 restrictions
Just do as all dad’s have done in the past. Learn from mistake and teach them a lesson that deflects responsibility from you, “See? And that’s why you shouldn’t just trust people, even if they’re adults.”
That’s how I thank my dad for teaching me how to work on motorbikes instead of blaming him for having my legs covered in burning oil before being stuck under an 80CC’s burning exhaust pipe on my fifth birthday—yes, it was too large a bike at that age.
What are you on about? This as confusing as my 60 year old father trying to explain final fantasy 7’s combat system to me on my seventh birthday - no, he did not know what a jrpg was.
Why is this getting upvoted lol. It’s dumb
And my ex thinks our kids are loaded with ALL the allergies. They’ve been here 2-months without issue, and that’s spending half their time outdoors and in the woods.
It’s fucked up. She’s training them to be sick and dependent on her. When I pick them up, they’re sniffling non-stop. That’s over by the end of the 8-hour trip and doesn’t start again until she gets them back. Rinse and repeat.
Fuck this comic. I know that my kids have no allergies!
So many upset people. Everyone is different in experiencing this issue. Sometimes both spouses know the allergies and sometimes only one does and sadly sometimes neither give two shits about their kids.
That’s not the point. I can’t believe you did a “both sides” for this cartoon, lol.
Point is the cartoon portrays the dad poorly, and people are tired of dads constantly being portrayed as inept or incapable. That’s why the backlash.
Hmm. I’ve taken some time to think about your reply. My point was the same but worded in a way I guess doesn’t make sense. It’s a cartoon. Why does it matter how the cartoonist represented their thoughts? People getting upset over it is dumb. That is why I made a both sides of the cartoon. Either way you look at it you’re going to have people that either agree and laugh or get upset and irritated and then lash out over how it isn’t appropriate or whatnot.
