How dare you help Dad?!

Face it, dads. We can't win.

A new report out by LiveScience suggests that fathers who help out at home and try to aid the supermom (who works outside the home in addition to being a mother) could be hurting mom's self-esteem. Cue cheesy soap opera organ music!

I could offer an elaborate explanation of my opinion, but I'll keep it short. I'm pissed. So many women would love their husbands to help out more at home, and husbands should. If for nothing else, to show the moms that they love them and want to make things easier. But putting guys into this lose-lose scenario (either you help and you hurt mom's ego or you don't help and look like a jerk) is ridiculous and cruel. Guys, when you help out, you're a hero. Science can kiss your butt.
