Norwegian Dad Takes Paternity Leave And Illustrates What It’s Like To Raise Two Children
Raising a child is hard, and any parent would agree with that. Parenting is not only difficult but also emotionally and intellectually draining as children are needy, demanding and.. the whole thing requires a lot of time!
Every parent has a different way of looking after their baby. And there is no problem in that! The most important thing is to give a child as much love as possible because, at the end of the day, parents are the luckiest people on the planet to have their baby.
Artist Stale Gerhardsen from Norway is happily married and has 2 wonderful children. A while ago, he got a paternity leave and as he enjoyed the experience, he decided to create hilarious illustrations about it. He posted them on his Instagram and people loved it so much that he decided to compile them into a book!
So scroll down the page and laugh together with us at these hilariously lovely parenting illustrations!

Lovely series. Unlike many of these "12364643269 Tweets about parenting" series these comics combine the downsides of being a parent with making clear that the fun prevails ultimately.
By the way: the Norwegian model is quite aspiring for other countries. You can have a total of 49 weeks of parental leave, of which 18 must be taken by the mother and 15 by the father, with the remainder being shared as you wish. Alternatively, 59 weeks can be taken with 80% payment. (Source: https://tjenester.nav.no/foreldrepengeplanlegger)

No it didn't. And guess what, women have shown comics exactly the same way that this man has. It shows that PARENTING is hard from both sides. By the way, its SO damn funny to me that you cry sexism and then turn around and bash on women and feminism. Feminism and so called "SJW" is a great thing. We're trying to spread equality, acceptance and love. And we're trying to fight for the right to be seen as human beings and individuals just like men are. But of course you don't see that. You just see "sexism against men" when men have NEVER had to deal with being seen as less than the way we have. So you have no damn reason to complain.
