What does a stay at home dad do on Mother’s Day?
In a stereotypical situation the mom takes care of the kids, goes shopping, does some errands and cooks. In those situations the ideal gift for Mother’s Day is a day at the spa or time away from the family. This would leave the father in charge of the family where it’s presumed that the house would implode, the hot water heater would burst; no diapers would be changed and if they were it would result in the babies poop ending up on dad’s face.
