Joe Lilli
Did he literally say that? Or did he mean it in the sense that now that he has no work, he isn’t hiring nannies while he’s off filming anymore? Because presumably he had nannies doing that
Yeah. Not only taking his wife’s work for granted, but also his wealth for granted and probably still does to an extent.
Unless it was kids who took the school bus, picking kids up from school/dropping them off daily is pretty standard.
I think you’re interpreting this one sentence a bit too literally. Like, you’re not necessarily wrong with your point about the stereotypical father, but using some celebrity interview to force the point is…very forced.
Why, the wives and children of celebrities don’t view these men as ‘celebrities’, they view them as husbands and fathers. Family dynamics still exist in these relationships
And if we needed any other proof, there is this comment section. 😬😬😬
And you can clearly see the social machine in action coddling them for their minimum effort in your comments.
😆 I’m dead this is so true, chelsea’s so funny
Rich people bragging about doing normal household labor like it makes them relatable will always be a source of neverending amusement to me.
For you it is amusement, for me it is rage 🙃
I miss my cat. I went home to see my cat. I’d feel sad otherwise
The bus? Exists? And subways?
Parents raise their sons to be this way then shocked when their sons are this way. Js a lot of yall need to take responsibility for raising mediocre sons.
Parents have some influence how their children turn out, but the influence of society and peer groups is large, maybe even larger than the parent’s.
Women will be going through a mental health crisis and will still pull through to take care of their kids including drop off at school. Men get the luxury of picking and choosing their level of involvement.
I agree with your second sentence, but the first one is absolutely not true. Not all mothers are saints and can be as absent and shitty as some dads can.
Dude. Guy without kids here. I always chalked up the phrase “men get credit just for showing up” to misandry. Then I became acquainted with a real life dumpster fire father who uses his kid as a prop for dating and gets endless credit for “being a good dad.” It’s 100% true that men get credit just for showing up. Makes me sick to see now.
Good on you for realizing your own bias! It’s always shocking when we get to see certain absurdities live in front of us, because they sound so absolutely ridiculous we have a hard time believing them witout seeing them first hand.
I’m a single male and have many married male co-workers. These guys put soo much weight on their wives’ plates in terms of childcare, work, etc. No wonder so many men wind up divorced later in life.
Yes but alot of them probably thinks they are doing half.
I agree with your overall point, I just think Hammer meant “I takes my kids to school” as “I am no longer blitzed out of my mind waking up in a dumpster like I transformed into an alcoholic werewolf and can now be present in my children’s lives.”
Indeed, and he doesn’t deserve a pat on the back, or a cookie for that bare minimum of involvement. He has just evolved from crap human to normal human. No claps for that.
My dad once complained that when I was a baby he would have to feed me before he could eat
2 things can be true at the same time, those 2 things being an unreasonably large population of men needing to work super hard later in life to reach the base level of human functionality and something else I lost the plot because I just got extremely upset over remembering that my younger brother deciding that having a harem of women caretakers (like our father had) is something to aspire to.
The bar for men is in hell
You are unfamiliar with Louis’ interviewing style if you think he was going to give Hammer the chance to backtrack on what he said. Louis never criticises his interviewees in the moment, just lets them say what they want to say, and let us all hear it.
Geez, she is so smart and pretty.
