It causes consternation to Mum, that Dad is so committed to the little ones' development. She refers to his commitment as an obsession. As that Dad, I find this a spectacularly negative and sad perspective.
Jealousy is invoked, and a mood swing in Mum to the hardcore negative sets in, where the little princess shows clear and joy filled affection towards Daddy.
Dad's patience with the little one is a source of anger at times too .. particularly where some positive is pointed out in a behaviour that Mum considered inappropriate (..such as the spilling of a little water onto floorboards and then proceeding to the dry up the spillage with a pre-organised tea towel).
