(Composition / text = Takeshi Tsuruno) [Photo] Takeshi Tsuruno "finally delivers" his new car that he bought a year ago. A cool body shot is in the limelight. I'm working on it, but this time I'd like to tell you about when Tsuruno took childcare leave. "Takeshi Tsuruno" Thank you. I took childcare leave 10 years ago, 2 months, and 5 years ago. I took a total of two times a month. Anyway, I wanted to rest my wife, so I wrapped up my bee and tried to get enthusiastic. "Nakamura" After all, women have various physical conditions, so people who can recover quickly. Some people take time, so letting them rest is an important thing that will lead to childcare in the future. "Tsuru's" That's right. There are so many things that I couldn't understand until I really experienced it. After all, my mother's work was hard, and I thought it was amazing. My wife took a complete rest and said, "I don't have to do anything," and woke up at 5 o'clock every morning, and there were four children at that time. We made our lunches all at once, sent them out, and then took out the trash. When we actually experienced it, there were a lot of things we had to do before washing the dishes. ”Nakamura: That's right. It's not just about cleaning up the dishes and washing the dishes. "Tsuru's" I felt like I finally realized that. First, I took all the dust off the dishes, removed all the vinyl from the pet bottle, and then Wipe the table ... I had a lot of things to do before I got to wash the dishes, but I didn't realize that I had to actually try it. Until now, "I washed the dishes." I used to have a "doya face" like that, but that's not the case. I realized that it's unavoidable to be told, "If that's the case, it's better not to do it." If you try, you will deepen mutual understanding. Even so, the wife who is raising five children is really great. "Tsuru's" I think it was really difficult if I didn't take childcare leave. The first week was fresh and fun, and I thought, "I can afford this at all", but after a week, suddenly, I couldn't say anything about it. There is a day when I don't talk to anyone. . I want to eat someone's food. The loneliness that no one appreciates what I did ... "Nakamura" I was able to experience it well. Outside Even if my work at is evaluated, no one will evaluate my housework ... "Tsuru's" That was big. After all, I do household chores every day, but there is no "thank you" from anyone. It was super hard to notice it. It is natural that there is no evaluation. A long time ago, at lunch time, I saw the scenery of moms lining up their bicycles in front of the store and talking for a long time. I thought, but when I experienced this, I also wanted to go to lunch (laughs). I thought it would be very big to have one more understanding person. ”Nakamura:“ I think your wife was really helped. You were relieved, right? ”Tsuru's“ Yes, until now. My wife's story was from right to left, but now she's coming in properly (laughs) "(continued) □ Takeshi Tsuruno Born May 26, 1975.
