I Love My Baby, and...I Hate Being the Default Parent (pt. 1)

Send us Fan MailThe concept of the default parent is loaded with emotion - for good reason! Parenthood *is* loaded with emotion. There’s generally an association with this term and being the parent who “does it all.” But is there truly a one-size-fits-all definition to the term “default parent?” (Hint: there isn’t! We add our own meaning to things like this!)  In the first installment of this 2-part episode, Erin and Ruby explore what it means to be the default parent, the societal expectations that influence the ways in which moms tend to experience this burnout more (hahahhahelp) and what can happen if you have a different definition for the term than your partner. Loving the show?  We'd love your feedback!If you would like to submit a response to be aired on I Love My Baby, And...you can email Erin and Ruby here: [email protected]*To note, all submissions read on air are kept confidential*You can find Erin here:[email protected] can find Ruby here:10K Counseling | Online Therapy in Colorado@RubyTalksRelationshipsIf you are needing immediate postpartum support, please use the following Postpartum Support International resources:PSI Resources
