Though I’d be interested in more stats on this.
I’ve known enough HN’ers and tech fathers in real life who talk a lot but don’t look after their kids to have become cynical myself.
- intothemild 8y agoAhh yes. I agree. Men don’t do their share of parenting as a whole. I thought you were saying this is specific to tech, of which I’d disagree. It’s more wide spread than that.
- xevb3k 8y agoYes, my phrasing was not ideal. I don’t know if it’s particular bad in tech. But it is a general problem I’ve seen (and also noticed in tech).
