Where Is Daddy? • As is true with all infants, Elaine and Sean’s baby requires a great deal of attention. Even though Elaine works part-time, Sean doesn’t lift a finger to help. At night he nudges Elaine when he hears Eddie crying. He rarely helps around the house, and he spends very little time with the infant. When he does help, his technique with the baby is so poor that Elaine tries not to ask him to do much. What irks Elaine is Sean’s seeming lack of interest in the baby. Sean agrees that his caregiving is not as good as Elaine’s, but he says, “When Eddie can play ball or a board game, you’ll see how much time I spend with him.” • Elaine is not happy with the situation. If you were Elaine, how would you handle the situation?
