Well, if men's hobbies warrent a section of its own, I don't see why parenthood is of less importance. Those not interested can always choose not to visit, isn't it?

Being 70% non-car related has became MCF's DNA, which ensures that it has survived till now with continual interest.

 

What we have here under parenthood need not be the usual kinda topics as seen in normal parenting forums, rather it is more of a male skewed topics, now.... won't that be welcoming?

 

 

even how man also has his soft side, cannot everyday talk about car, women, watch or beer right? [laugh]

I suggest calling the folder

this reminded of an incident :

 

my bb gal was less than 3 months then... lots of problems @ night due to colic. i was telling my friend she is an angel during day... @ night, i shake my head. then during a friends gathering, my friend casually brought up the topic mentioning i said my bb gal is a devil. i got very defensive and said although she is not an angel @ nite, that doesn't mean she is a devil. it sounded harsh and i wasn't sure if i offended him.

 

As a 1st time parent, i admit @ times the crying do get on my nerves. But a devil? No way!

Was your friend joking or trying to be light hearted? Albeit a poor joke.

He is married with no kid and don't intend to have one. Knowing him for so long, he tends to speak without really thinking carefully. As a new parent, i was also abit sensitive thus i snapped at his words.

 

A couple without kid will never understand what a couple with kid(s) went through. No matter how they said they do...

Yalor, personally, I feel it is easier to discuss some parenthood topics with fellow men.

 

Just like breast feeding for example, men discuss the topic with more of an objective and practical view rather than an emotional view as women would tackle it

Eg, I am a breast feeding crusader mom.... Or ....

How can I bear not to breast feed my baby, I must be an evil mom etc

 

Now, try discussing this in a female dominated forum, you talk about their breast, see how they bash you and label you a chee ko pek .... kidding la..

Thanks for sharing your candid moment. First time being a parent really isn't an easy thing, thus you tend to get over-sensitive due to fatigue and perhaps stress.

 

As a dad to be, I keep hearing my daddy friends tell me "Enjoy your life while you can", while I appreciate that this is true, it seems rather unencouraging.

Now, how would I know life "would be hell" until I experience it myself?

 

Have seen fathers who really enjoy fatherhood.... thus I feel such a channel to discuss parenting issues which are more applicable to men is kinda useful.

 

Topics like transition from a yuppie lifestyle to being parents (means no more beer, no more late nights with the boys, etc), perhaps an avenue for guys to share their thoughts and experiences....

 

Because if you ask a woman, they will tell you that all you have to do is to listen to your wife. True, but not totally true too............

Also, push present (anyone heard of that? ) what's the norm? what's the expectations? etc...

 

cheers

Push present? my wife mentioned it... i gave her a push... Nah, here you go!

 

Did bought her a T&Co bracelet after a few months tho... not sure if it counted as push present... hahaha...

 

Me and wife still take turns to have some nights out wif frens but definitely lesser than before kids. Biz travel is also tougher after kid, missing my gal and worrying about my wife handling her alone.
