Working mom calls out ‘Daddy privilege’ that sees her husband praised for ‘basic parenting’

A mother has gone viral for revealing how her husband gets treated differently when out alone with their six-moth old baby claiming he’s treated like ‘a hero’ for doing basic parenting.   

Bakery business owner Chloe Sexton, 27,  from Memphis, Tennessee, shared a video to TikTok revealing that her husband Tyler faces ‘Daddy Privilege’ while looking after their son Theodore – a term used when men experience praise for doing the normal duties that are expected of mothers.

Taking to TiKTok, Chloe explained how she often takes Theodore with her when she works and runs errands, including going to wholesalers where she has to pick up 400lb bags of flour and butter with a baby strapped to her – adding ‘no one blinks an eyelid’. 

But when her husband had the day off work and helped her out, he was ‘treated like a hero’ and praised.
