Would you tag in?

DH never puts DS to bed, he's been at it for 15 mins.  I know I can do it much quicker.  Should I tag in or just let him have at it indefinitely?

If it were me, I'd pop in and ask if he needs help. But, I wouldn't just take over. He needs to gain the confidence that daddy can do it too.

This.

I'd let it go a little longer and then phrase it like you are asking if you can give him a break for a while, so as to imply that LO must just be being difficult and not that he can't do it.

Thanks!  He did it on his own!

I would let him do it. He's gotta learn. My H would ask for help if he needed it.
