[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I fear for anyone stupid enough to take that literally. A solid marriage is an equal partnership, not split down the middle 50/50. I like the idea of one partner is primarily responsible to bring home the bacon, while the other one’s primary responsibility is to manage the home. Neither one is better than the other. They both help and support each other. What’s not to like?[/quote] This only works if you go back to the "good old days" where wives were fine essentially being treated like the help and you never left your husband over affairs, physical abuse, etc. Also, it's not easy to find a husband that brings in a ton of bacon that is looking for this kind of wife (who tends to not be college educated or ever had a real career to start).[/quote] Duel career parents have to farm out their parenting responsibilities. It takes a lot more than bacon for children to have a healthy childhood. Who exactly loves your child as much as you do? Most young people these days are suffering with extreme alienation. Why?[/quote] There is a difference between two dual-career parents that decide one should SAH vs. a woman who has decided that is her life when she is 18. I don't know any dual career parents that would have that reading at their wedding...even if one decides to SAH. There are tons of young people with a SAH parent that suffer from alienation...so you to tell me who is to blame? It's not something that is unique to any parenting style. The other thing that also seems to be conveniently forgotten is a high percentage of people are SAH because they don't like their job. It's not because they have some lofty parenting ambition. There are many very high powered dual-career parenting examples where neither has to continue working ever again...yet they both continue to do so.[/quote] Healthy early childhood development demands three components: stability, competence, and love. What daycare, or even nanny, will give this to your child?[/quote] I was better off in day care. My mom didn't enjoy being a mom and never really put much effort into us as my dad was her prioity (and they are divorced now). She was better off working. Given my child's needs, we are far better off with me at home. There is no one fit.[/quote]
