While implication versus what was literally written is quite muddy with this comment, what is missing from the entire comment is why it has to be a mother and not a father. The ending part also shows a lack of understanding of how childcare actually works today as well.
- gfodor 7y agoI give people the benefit of the doubt. To do so otherwise is both uncharitable and also can seem to be mind reading.

The internet can lose a lot in translation, and I think I was quite charitable with it, and only addressed the explicit parts.
