[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worry that they will be good fathers, but not good husbands. They have grown up with a SAHM and so their model is that mom takes care of everything and dad works. That is not likely going to be the scenario for them so if they have a working wife and try to act like their dad, they're screwed.

My mom was a SAHM, dad was spoiled by her but he was willing to pitch in whenever needed or asked, though he had long hours and commute so was only free on weekends.

Three of my brothers are amazing husbands with marriages and parenting of great equality. One even became SAHD for three years because wife was on training and couldn't pause that. His career was more flexible so he did and ran a great home and raised good kids.

Other 2 are very average husbands as they weren't hands on partners. They were great providers and did become better husbands with time. They had SAHM wives so it worked out otherwise could've been tougher. What's fun is that ones who are better husbands, aren't afraid of their wives. Ones who were average husbands, Lol they are totally afraid of their wives and who are decision makers even though they are SAHMs.

Bottom line is that even though they were raised in same household, they are their own people. What's common is they all are loyal husbands and loving fathers.[/quote]
