Cherie's full of tulip - again!!

This is Cherie banging on about how men should do more in the family, including spending time with children, caring for elderly relatives blah blah blah

Now I'm sure I've read reports showing the time fathers spend with their children these days is x% higher than previous generations. Reading between the lines of this article (in fact just reading the article), I detect a feminist bulltulip agenda. The fact that it mentions Demos, the 'left-of-centre' think-tank is worrying in itself.

Still, I did find it amusing Tony calls her a bolshie scouser...

Labour want their cake, and they want to eat it. They want both parents to work to keep the economy afloat, and they want both parents to say at home on parenting duties to prevent the kids from turning into rabid chavs.

Which is it to be?

recent report said men now do 29% of child raising. still gives them no rights upon seperation. men only get 4% of residence upon divorce - and stand a 60% chance of losing contact with their children.

Cherie should tell the family courts to implement the 1989 Children Act (child's interests will come first).

Men still only get 2 weeks paternity compared to 6 months for women! (maternity)

I read an article recently (by a woman) which basically said "if women want men to do more around the house, then women should stop being such control freaks & let the man do it the way he wants to, not the way the woman wants it done"

From my personal experience, very accurate.

Whichever way you do it, it's always wrong...

Oh so true my scaly friend, so true....

The society is buggered. Different in Denmark..they manage a much more balanced lifestyle - without all the materialistic hoohaa that the UK has now.

The UK laws have not kept up - as usual. But then there probably is a lot of pressure from femanist groups (Women good, Men evil)

I'd bet that even if I stayed home with my son (which I would love to do) and the wife went out, and we later divorced, she would get the child.

Danes not materialistic? Bwahahahahaha

A Dane will only say they are not materialistic because some government minister said they are not. If a government minister came out and said they were, they would be...

[lilelvis2000]

Are the Danes as bad as brits? Alls I know is Danes are nearly as house mad now as we are. Otherwise they're supposed to be a balanced group of people.

Then again, threaded only hangs out with the uber rich so of course his view is slightly tilted.
