Man vs Zone

So here is the difference between man vs. zone when it comes to kids. If you are a single parent with one child, it's man on man. If you are a dual parent family with one child, it is zone. If you are a dual parents family with two children it is man on man.

As most of you guys know, the zone defense allows each member to take a certain area, cover it, and trust that the other guys on the team is doing the same. In the case of parenthood with one child, the mother and father get to play zone. For instance, let's say you are wanting to use the bathroom where a newspaper comes in handy. You can ask your wife to cover while you do your business. Now throw in a second child and the play becomes a man on man play. The luxury of sitting on the pot with the newspaper is now out the window. You are going to have to either bring one of them to the bathroom with you, or let him or her cry or get into some mess. I'm telling you, with two children or more, the game play has got to change. Its a little tougher and more complex than with just one child, let alone none.
