A professional golfer? He’s going to work…
One of the people who can definitely afford to not need to be away after the kid's born. If you have the opportunity, why not spend the time with them?
I read a bit about him this morning. He’s at the top of his game and has an opportunity to make a ton of money with this major tournament.
As someone who took as much paternity leave as possible I totally understand why he did this.
I get your point of view, but athletes have a limited window to make as much money as possible (especially in a sport like golf where there are no guaranteed contracts). I’m sure the mother understands the decision as a long term one.
Holy shit, do you think the kid's gonna reschedule his development windows for golf? It's his first kid, and he's making a mistake. Doesn't matter if the mom's OK, him being absent means less familiarity with his own son's behavior and needs. Why every mother doesn't insist on massive father involvement during her own recovery from birth is insane.
You know nothing about his relationship with his child. This is wild speculation on your part.
I know how long it takes to recover from birth, and 8 days ain't it
You have abnormal fascination with the fact that this particular father did not father the way you wish he had fathered.
Did Scotty sign a waiver stating he would follow your fatherly guidelines?
