[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 3 sons. I hate that in our society it is compulsory for men to work but optional for women. I work to set the expectation that it is not optional for anyone - man or woman. I don't need to work in the sense that we don't need the income, and it is a bigger hassle for me to be in work - childcare, pickups, drop-offs, dinners, etc. But I work bc it has never crossed DHs mind to not work. I joke that I will cut-off any son whose partner does not work, and I'm being sort of serious![/quote] I’m another mother of boys who totally agrees with you. It’s so important for boys to see their mother working. Not only that but men with working mothers are proven to be better partners. I’ll take it.[/quote]
