I think I have already spent too much time writing about him so I'll end here.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11213382229701873907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-773373869463725905.post-7804066854773297432010-03-23T07:29:51.965-04:002010-03-23T07:29:51.965-04:00This seems so chauvenistic to make that comment. O...This seems so chauvenistic to make that comment. Oh, the mom must stay at home to send the right message to the children. (BS!) <br /><br />As Kanaris points out there is no data to support this claim.<br /><br />I believe the healthiest situation for the children who have caregivers other than the parents (whether nannies, childcare centers, relatives) etc. is healthy boundaries and shared roles and responsiblities in rearing a child. (Takes a village)<br /><br />I have worked for dads (single, divorced, widowed, and gay) as well, I think on some level they would also find this offensive, as it doesn't address the roles fathers play in all of the child's development too.Lisahttp://modernizingmarypoppins.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-773373869463725905.post-29190508302403747252010-03-23T06:44:54.444-04:002010-03-23T06:44:54.444-04:00That is the most offensive comment by Dennis Fried...That is the most offensive comment by Dennis Friedman.<br /><br />Let's focus on this part of the article "Loving, consistent support is what is important,” Kanaris says. “And it doesn’t matter whether it is done by one person or more than one person, as long as it is consistent. The focus should be on providing for the child’s needs in a loving environment. There are many diverse possibilities for child rearing.”<br /><br />Freidman is some conservative nut job!!lovebeinganannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14065214480112809135noreply@blogger.com
