An interview with Autumn, aged 3

12th February 202011th October 2019

When Autumn was a little baby, I saw these interview questions going around on parenting blogs. I looked forward to the day I’d be able to ask her and find out her cute answers.

However, with the rise of stay-at-home dads and dads seeming to be more hands-on in general, I wondered what my husband’s thoughts were.

I have only read stories of women having it online, so I’m hoping that it may help some people to read about a man with the condition.
