There are loads of stereotypical behaviours in hetro-parents. E.g.: Dad is there less, but when he spends time with the kids alone, everything goes. You’ll order take-out and watch crazy ageinappropriate movies till way past your bedtime.
Mum runs the show. She wakes you up, puts out clothes when your younger. She cooks, makes appointments, organizes your hobbies and playdates.
And whenerver you ask if you can get something a little more expensive, or if you can go see your ffiend it’s “ask your mother”.
Are there comparable common dynamics in lesbian or gay parents, or are they percieved less, because both parents are of the same gender which automaticly dissolves these gender-roles from the beginning.
this is the current dynamic I have in my family. my wife is a sahm and I work from home.
I stay locked up in my office from morning until dinner and see the kids maybe two hours out of the day. there’s occasions when I see them when I grab lunch or coffee, but not usually.
this isn’t what we planned, but is a dynamic that just worked for us.
