As a dad myself, dudes who willingly deny themselves being in the presence of the miracle of childbirth let alone being there for the entirety of what comes after baffles me.

Miracle of birth = one of the most physically traumatic things a person can go through. There’s blood, and ripping and shitting and the threat of death and your ‘partner’ knows all that and leaves?! Just really sad. But, yes, still unfortunately common. Especially for younger parents id guess.
