Women Want Men To Help Out With The Kids More . . . They Just Don't Want Them To Be *Too* Good At It

Guys . . . here's even more proof that you just CAN'T WIN with women.

--Recently, researchers from the Osaka University of Commerce in Japan teamed up with researchers at the University of Texas. The idea was to study the different ways men and women approach raising kids.

--What they found is that for every hour a father spends raising his kids, a mother spends nearly three hours doing it. So it makes sense that most mothers would like a little more help with the kids. But that's only half the story . . .

--Because when a father is TOO good with the kids . . . or when he spends TOO much time with them one-on-one . . . it makes women feel WORSE about themselves.

--A guy named Takayuki Sasaki led the study. He says, quote, "mothers suffer from self-competence losses when their husbands are involved and skillful, because those mothers may consider that it is a failure to fulfill cultural expectations."

--In other words, your wife wants you to help her raise the kids. But she doesn't want too much help, and she doesn't want you to be that good at it. (???)
