[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Staying home with kids in the early years is overrated.  My vote is that you wait until the teen years.  I'm not kidding.  [/quote]

On this thread, staying home isn’t overrated.  Very few posters have credited with any value at all.  I think different things work for different families, but it’s sad to see childcare reduced to a chore that ought to be outsourced.[/quote]

The truth is less than half the population value children - and the most undervalued members of our society are repeatedly put in charge of this ‘chore’ which is why it’s outsourced.  When men start to care - its value will change.  Men only care if it means they can feel bigger by supporting their “less than” wife and “less than” children- it makes the man feel important and big.  BUT if children were very important we’d see much more men prioritizing them.[/quote]

Wait, your DH doesn’t value your children?

Does your DH value time spent doing childcare more than time spent on his career, pp?  
[/quote]

Yes. My DH has a job. It pays well but it’s not his life. His family and friends are his real life.[/quote]
