Millennial dads spend more time with their kids, a 2017 study shows. However, societal dads for parents need to change at the workplace, too. Category : Parenting
As a millennial who just had a baby girl, I can’t imagine being so disconnected that I hadn’t changed a diaper.
I think parenting in general for both sexes is more involved and the expectations are much higher that it was for our parents. Making sure you get x tummy time or do y development activity or z social development classes with other babies etc.
I also think parents today are having kids more by personal choice than societal pressure. So they are more engaged and less “just going through the motions of what society expects”.
