Often times, mothers shudder the idea of leaving their children with their father for a long period of time. But sometimes, the kids have to stay back at home with dad while mom takes care of other things. This tends to work all for the children, as fathers are great at coming up with activities that keep everyone happy, which means more work [cleaning up] for mom.

For this dad, having three kids was the best way to make sure he got everything he needed during his game time.
