DH did a lot while I was in the hospital and I know they noticed that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630448 Tue, 13 May 2014 04:48:48 +0000 Andrea 1630448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our moms say that I am lucky that he is involved and can take care of the kids by himself. Both of our dads were not hands on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630364 Mon, 12 May 2014 23:21:21 +0000 Boogs 1630364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very positively. From the other side there seems to always be something to say. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630355 Mon, 12 May 2014 23:09:32 +0000 MrsStar 1630355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, my mum says what a great daddy-daughter relationship he and lo have already. And she's said multiple times how awesome it is that he's there to help me out changing diapers etc. (my mum was a single parent so makes her appreciate dh even more) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630339 Mon, 12 May 2014 22:49:21 +0000 Applesandbananas 1630339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of. My mom will just throw out observations, but she isn't cruel or unfair about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630325 Mon, 12 May 2014 22:38:49 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1630325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yea, usually with a look of surprise and awe at how involved and attentive he is. It just wasn't the norm in their generation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630323 Mon, 12 May 2014 22:34:22 +0000 JennyD 1630323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The last comment we got was when my husband took parental leave. My dad said it would be bad for his career, and couldn't believe I would "make" him do that. And not to mention how bad it would be for the baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630282 Mon, 12 May 2014 22:03:29 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1630282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very positively!! They comment on how he's such a great dad, so sweet, etc... We all agree he'll likely be the favorite uncle too ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630278 Mon, 12 May 2014 22:02:15 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1630278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They think he's awesome and yes, to them, an involved father is something to recognize because many Arab dads are not as hands on (very involved but not hands-on like: diapers and packing a diaper bag for example). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630269 Mon, 12 May 2014 21:59:26 +0000 Weagle 1630269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They do, all positive. They think he's an awesome dad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-your-parents-comment-on-your-sos-parenting#post-1630222 Mon, 12 May 2014 21:38:13 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1630222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom says that Mr. Bee does a lot of childcare. In her generation/culture men generally didn't do much childcare. Although my dad actually did a lot.... just not when we were really little like Charlie and Olive. </p> <p>Do your parents comment on your SO's parenting? </p>
