Have been on a thread about the mother who has abducted her 4 children from their Spanish father. My initial thoughts on reading the reports was that the mother must have been in a desperate situation to do this. I automatically assumed that she had suffered abuse at her XH hands, rather than assume she was some chaotic, deranged liar. What else drives a mother to leave home and leave her 4 children behind?
My gut reaction is always in favour of the woman in domestic situations
I don?t hate men, I have male friends, I know tremendous fathers-mine included
But if you take an equal sample of women and men, I would bet my socks that you will find a larger number of crap husbands/fathers than you will crap wives/mothers
Im not saying men are inferior/worse than women, but they choose to behave badly in a family capacity more often than women
Do you agree at all?
