Hinesh Chauhan explains why mothers typically stay primary caregivers after divorce, handling routines and school contact while fathers struggle with practical gaps. Healthy co-parenting means sharing these responsibilities so kids get consistent care in both homes.

You when we talk about the differences between men and women going through divorce. There are a tremendous amount of studies that talk about income disparity and how generally the household income for a woman declines and mental health and physical health declines for men. And there's a lot of evidence towards this. But what isn't well documented, tracked or discussed are the practical elements where generally women or the moms are the primary caregivers for the children and understand the routine, have their health or insurance information, have access or regular communication with the teachers and dads don't necessarily have that, and then understanding the impact to them and how they are are challenged with those more micro details that they're often overlooked and not considered. And this isn't a win lose type approach. At least that's not what I like to discuss. And I'd like to get into the details of what this looks like and how it should be handled and the considerations from either side so that other dads understand as they go through this, what other dads go through and for the moms and women to understand the challenges that dads face and how to, how to even that out. So ultimately the kids win. The kids have the same quality of life at both houses and it takes, takes a lot of collaboration and healthy co parenting to make that happen. So let's talk about that, let's learn about it and let's just, let's be better parents and create better outcomes for our kids.
