It looks like we have a lot of bitter, underappreciated husbands and fathers here. (Gentlemen, Mother's Day is approaching. This is just a nice little puff piece to honor mothers. Nothing sinister or scary. The truth is, what mothers AND fathers do is priceless.)

Not the least bit bitter or underappreciated. Taking care of my kids is my favorite thing to do in the world. I just don't expect societal "thanks" for doing it. They're my kids, not "society's", so why should "society" care? It's my responsibility, not anyone else's. The idea of some stranger thinking "hey, thanks for taking care of your house and kids" is just odd to me. It's just part of being an adult.
