Self-described 'recovering man child' shares parenting mental load tips
Original: "Recovering man child" shares tips for men to get better at tackling the mental load of parenting
A man describing himself as a 'recovering man child' is sharing advice for fathers and male partners on taking on the mental load of parenting — the unseen planning, scheduling and remembering behind family life. He urges men to anticipate needs rather than wait to be asked, tapping into an ongoing debate about unequal emotional and organisational labour in households.
Why now: The mental load of parenting is a widely debated topic, and a man openly addressing men's share of it draws attention.
