Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I feel you.
My wife doesn't get extra parental (just the provincial 70/55%), I get topped up to 93%. Combined with other factors, it was pretty easy math that I'd get the lion's share of the shared weeks.
I get berated for it a lot. One nurse wouldn't see my kid until I she called my wife and confirmed she wasn't coming to the appointment.
It's really annoying constantly explaining that I am capable of being a caregiver to my child, that I don't miss working, and that I don't feel like I'm ruining my wife's chance to bond with our kid.
Haters can suck on my excellent fathering skills.
