    43% to 3%. Good on us! I want to know what these other 3% are up to.

    My wife lost her job at the beginning of the pandemic. So she became a stay-at-home mom to our daughter - thinking it’s just be a temporary thing. I got to watch the struggle first hand while I worked from home. Kids are so unbelievably hard and there are absolutely no breaks. It’s unbelievable to me that we as men would just put that all on our wives. I get that things are different now. How we survive is different. But I’m glad that my generation has not only men who are willing to listen and help, but also women who are willing to speak up. I don’t think my mom ever did that.

    We had another kid in 2021. I step away from work to change every poopy diaper. It’s the least I can do.
