[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over the last few years, I have witnessed a trend that is very surprising to me: ridiculously well compensated men who have some how achieved the ability to get MORE time with their families at the height of their careers.  I am talking managing partners of major law firms, developers, high end lobbyists, CEOs of mid sized businesses and large publicly traded ones - all making seven figures and up - who are simply AROUND for their kids.  Coaching, volunteering, attending games, taking sons and daughters on trips, driving them to and from stuff.  All very successful men who absolutely make time above and beyond the norm to be present for their kids.  They all also appear to have strong marriages and do a lot of things with their wives.  I am sure they all have help to take a lot of the running around out of their lives and to get chores done but they don't appear to use the time saved for more work or golf or what have you.  The new "goal" for the DC super achievers that I know is to use their time well with their families, careers, communities and their hobbies.  These are not man-children at all.     [/quote]

OMG. 1). You keep posting this. You obviously have an agenda to push. 2). I live in an area with these law firm partners, doctors, CEOs, and while they may show up for the soccer game, they are working around the clock the rest of the week and frequently traveling. What you post above is a total fantasy. Please wake up, clueless SAHM.

If it was a SAHM, she would not be clueless, since she would know that she is doing all and making it possible for the dads to just make an appearance. 
The men who are making this kind of money and showing up for their kids games are the ones who are overcompensated and are  also dumping work on others at work.   They are also usually divorced or with a WOHM and have family or nanny's taking care of their kids for all other stuff. Most of them show up for the games or pick up their kids from school and make a big F'ing show of Skyping to their meeting to let people think they are good dads.  I know the losers who were making a ton of money and their wives still left them for their APs.  Maybe they were just lousy in bed. Who can say![/quote]
