[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So wait, your wife works and does all of the house work, the "physical stuff" as you say and wants to have a career and you think she's supposed to just stop working because you guys decided to have kids?

Can you be the stay at home parent?

Exactly. OP you sound like my DH except that my kids don't need to vie for my attention.  Let me ask you this: who takes the kids to the doctors?  Who lays in their bed when they're throwing up?  Who packs their lunches?  Who goes to every single parent-teacher conference and stays up late to plan their birthday parties?  I'll be the first to admit that my DH does a great job playing with the kids and letting them know he is there for them (when work doesn't get in the way), but he completely fails to recognize that there is far more to raising children than being a good playmate. I'm sure that my DH is more fun than me, but my kids know that I am their rock. Who are you to expect your wife to take on a role that you are unwilling to take on yourself?  Marriage isn't about sitting around waiting for your partner to meet your needs. [/quote]
