I do not have any specific incompetent dad story about my husband. But I do find it very difficult to feel comfortable leaving the kids with my husband for any long periods of time. He does not help around the house much when I am home and easily loses his patience with the kids when he doesn't understand what they need. He spends all his time alone with them on the computer and I think they realize that. They do not like staying home with him. Perhaps if he helped more, I would feel more confident in his ability to take care of them in my absence. Perhaps if he was more involved, the kids would feel more comfortable being left with him.
I would hope that most fathers are not like my husband.
