Many cannot admit that, feel threatened, as if saying thus means that Gordon will swoop in a undo your children. Being home with small kids, even with the aid of a great caveman, can be BRUTAL. Loving raising your kids and suffering from it at the same time is one of the dichotomies of the female condition.

And while the animal kingdom is full of examples of useless males, most animals do not have babies that are as utterly useless and blob like as humans. If you are an animal that raises its young with no mate, you are much more likely to have a baby that can run several hours after birth, forage on its own, cling to you while you climb a tree, or otherwise knows to shut up when a large dinosaur is near. A human baby does NONE of those things. Humans are at a mass disadvantage because of the pointlessness of their useless offspring. These babies are born....a terrible, crippling burden.

The care they need is miles beyond what any animal has ever been expected to provide. SO do animals have cut-and-run fathers? Yes. But they have offspring who the mother is (usually) capable of raising without too much threat to herself or the young.
