Scenario

When your partner assumes you're naturally better at parenting

My husband works from home and I commute two hours daily but he still expects me to handle all the dinner prep and bedtime routines because I am 'naturally better with the kids'.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Traditional gender roles are being reinforced through the language of natural aptitude rather than examined as learned behaviors and choices.
