I liked this comment, although my advice would have been "Why did you have a kid with such a scrote? Leave him and take all of his money!":


I’ll try to keep this as short as possible I 24F and my fiance 25M had a rather large disagreement this morning. While I was brushing my teeth and using the bathroom my fiance placed our daughter to watch her show in her high chair and then just proceeded to watch tik toks for the next approx 10-15 minutes straight while my daughter waited. I finally came out and saw this and asked why he hadn’t made any breakfast for her yet… he proceeds to say “I was waiting to ask you what to make for her” (note: she is one and eats scrambled eggs on daycare days like today) I said that’s a lie you know what she eats by now. Anyways this comment sparked a disagreement between us because I vented about his lack of assistance in helping to get her or any of her belongings ready to go in the morning. His solution after getting frustrated with me was to tell me I need to “make him a list of what I would like him to do for her” and I refused as I said I don’t want to mother him as well and as her parent he should know what needs to be done (diaper changes, outfit, teeth brushing, daycare bottles cleaned and filled up, etc.) I tried explaining that as her mom no one ever gives me a “list” I simply look around or think about what needs to be done. So I guess my question is aita for refusing to make the list?

A lot of advice is going to tell you to communicate.
You did that.
Men do not change their behavior because of how a woman feels. He doesn't care about you feel because regardless of you being mad you're still going to do all/most childcare, make his life easier with chores as well, and he gets to regularly stick his dick in you. He has no incentive to change. Men change their behavior based on results of him getting what he wants. Watch him be eager to change when you cut off all sex that you're not 100% into meaning no sex out of love because you care for his needs. Watch him be eager to change when you stop all acts of consideration for him, cleaning after him, cooking for him, or doing his laundry. What he gets from your body and resources is what makes him change NOT your feelings. Too many women think men operate like she does and will change when he hears his partner is sad or hurt by his behavior. I want you sit back and think when has telling a man your feelings of being hurt by him ever resulted in him stopping.
Men care more about what others, especially men, think of him than he ever will care about your feelings. Start telling your friends, his friends, and both families over how he didn't know what to make his own daughter for breakfast. Bring up his lacking involvement every time you gather. Watch him be quick to change his behavior. Countless men are more concerned about being seen as a good guy than being a good guy.
