[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]These days the SAHM want the husband to work then come home and start doing housework and taking care of the kids so they can get a break.

Yes, that's right. Because [b]why does he only get a break[/b]? I have both worked and taken care of little kids. Taking care of a newborn and toddler is a hell of a lot more exhausting than working in my office/traveling. No breaks, little adult conversation, drudgery and boredom. This is why we have to PAY PEOPLE for child care--because it is labor. Thus, they should split the labor at home. She labors at home and does her best to maximize her efficiency but when he comes out, they should split the labor.

after all, he chose to have two kids as well. [/quote]

The way it worked in my family was that I worked at the office all day while my wife took care of the kids at home, then I worked at home all night taking care of the kids at home while she'd often go out to get some adult time with her friends. So, my adult time was in the context of work. Her adult time was in the context of leisure. Now that the kids are older, I don't really have any friends or a great idea of what to do with leisure time. [/quote]
