Yeah I totally get your point. You're preaching to the choir here. Funny thing is, even if my daughter comes across anything like that, she just assumes that's normal. There's a show she watched where a boy had two dads, and she never even asked me why there are two dads lol. My wife got into the YouTube deepend on many topics, so it's pretty much impossible to change her mind about pretty much anything. Any time I try to go against her in any of the parenting choices, I immediately become a 'bad dad'. At this point I'm smuggling contraband for my daughter.
Your wife sounds like a terrible person. How do you deal with that? I ask because my wife and I have an 8mo old and I and finding out my wife is a terrible person too when it comes to our child's upbringing. Not going to lie, divorce is already on my mind. Either way I can't control what my wife thinks is best for the baby but I can't stand to be around this person who doesn't want what's best for our child. For the record I thought we were on the same page before the baby was born.
