Mixed Messages About Fathers' Role in Childbirth
Submitted by Scott on Tue, 2001-04-10 20:33
I have to admit, I am more than a bit confused and frustrated with this article by Betsy Hart, from the Union Leader. Hart comes down hard on men who are expected to take time off of work to be present when their wife gives birth, and it's apparent that Hart thinks men's place is at work and women's is childrearing. She does make the comment that "Hey, if a husband really wants to be in the delivery room, OK," but she obviously is somewhat repulsed by the idea. What do you make of this?Source: Union Leader [newspaper]
