A huge number of young dads believe that they are very tired at work, while their spouse is sitting at home with the child all day. What can she get tired of, because she only needs to monitor the child? Especially for these dads, we publish our memo.
Memo to husbands who do not understand all the “charms” of maternity leave
- At work, you don’t have the responsibility of carrying your boss in your arms. And almost all day, despite your tired hands.
- You do not have to follow colleagues who can put a stapler in their mouths, climb onto a table or decorate walls and blinds.
- Your colleagues probably know how to eat carefully, and you do not have to remove the consequences of their meal. They do not throw food and do not climb into your plate.
- Leaving the office at lunchtime, you do not have to persuade a colleague to get dressed, he does it on his own. You will not be killed by putting your fingers in a glove, legs in boots and a naughty head in a hat.
- On the street, your colleagues do not lie in a puddle in a suit you just bought, proving that you are right, and you do not then wash their clothes.
- When, by sheer chance, you and a colleague ended up in a store together, he does not beg you to buy everything that he sees, and at the same time he does not swear to behave and eat well. You do not have to include all your ingenuity and come up with a hundred reasons not to buy the tenth trifle in a row.
- When your colleagues are tired, you do not carry them back to the office in your arms, and they do not act up and do not wave their legs and arms.
- In the office, you don’t have to constantly pull on colleagues so that they don’t wipe their hands and suck their fingers. In any case, they have their own parents, who can blush for them.
- Your colleagues do not begin to cry for no reason. And even if this happens, you don’t have to do your best to calm them down.
- There is no concept of "daytime sleep" in the office. Fortunately, you don’t have to put your colleagues to bed, swing them in your arms and wait until these eyes finally close. While your colleagues are sleeping, you are not trying to do a thousand things and have time to wake them up, forgetting about your own vacation.
- You do not have to clean up all the documents, pens and rulers that your colleagues scattered around your office a hundred times a day.
- A colleague does not answer “no” to your every word or sentence.
- You are relieved of the obligation to monitor when a colleague needs to go to the toilet, and even more so no one forces you to remove the consequences of untimely visits.
- In addition to your main responsibilities, you are not forced to clean all the offices and prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner based on the whole team.
- And most importantly - from work you go home every day at a precisely designated time. And there you will definitely find a delicious dinner, clean clothes, a tidy apartment and a friendly wife.

Moms everyday life
Perhaps the only minus in the job - no one will tell you how much he loves 🙂
“Well, dear dads? Now you understand that your half works around the clock and has no days off? Believe me, a young mother is much harder at home than you are at work. ”

Video: how to do everything with a small child:
I often heard from my husband, you’re at home, it’s easier for you, but after the circumstances came and they put me in the hospital for a week, and he stayed with his six-month-old daughter, he experienced all the charm of household chores, more such words addressed to him I've never heard.
Also always amazed at the similar indignation of husbands. Many acquaintances sin like this. And I always understand my beloved. Moreover, more than once a day there remained one with the child and an idea that did not leave my head: God, and as soon as my wife and I had enough strength and patience for a year and a half, I was managed alone with the baby. So, dear men appreciate, love, understand and go to meet the mothers of your children.
Correctly people say that the most ungrateful work is homework. It is impossible to redo it. And if the “assistant” is a small child, then everything becomes much more complicated. Husbands, even young ones, should at least understand this.
Laughed heartily
