Alert | Posted By kenmoreguy72 on 07/18/2008 2:51 PM Well Jhall, we see things in a different way I guess. I feel very lucky that my wife is a working professional and I know that without me, she will be able to take care of herself and our children. My daughters will go to daycare and will also be raised by the values that my wife and I teach them. I can't imagine a woman that does not want to be out of the house and work independently of her husband. We spend plenty of time with our kids and our daycare and other family members make sure that our kids are in good hands during the day. Well if your wife is an educated professional then even if she became a stay at home mom to raise your children, chances are that if something happened to you she would have no problem taking care of herself and the kids. So that excuse is lame And it's great that you feel lucky. Thats what matters really is that you are happy with the situation. If your wife feels no guilt and doesn't feel like she is missing something by dropping her babies off to someone else to keep safe every day then that works out. And there are many women who don't have that instinct and it doesn't make them bad! The kids are little, whether they like it or not, most will get used to it. So don't feel that you have to justify anything to anyone kenmore, you don't! | | | |

Alert | "Now you can say all you want that men and women are the same, but they are not. One is not worse than the other, but they are different. People should embrace those differences and use them to their and their families advantage."
Actually didn't say that men and women are the same. I'm figurin', that after 52 years of life, 28 years of marriage, an educated daughter, I quite understand the differences between men and women. I'm for having women think for themselves, I'm for education so that their thought processes benefit themselves and society. I'm thinking that the choice to stay and work in the home, or work outside of the home is PERSONAL, not to be judged by those outside of the individual situations. A woman and a man can make their choices in a marriage, outsiders be damned. My 'ex, yeah, we're "different", it didn't work out, she worked at home, never outside, our choice at the time. Stop pointing your little finger all over and take care of your own house, that makes sense for us all. | | | |

Alert | "There are many women who, if better educated, would make very different decisions in life. Maybe this scares you."
BTW I do not fear educated women, I do not fear any woman. Well, maybe that stupid B*tch I escaped from in Florida scared me a bit... Bimbos talkin' on the phone while doing their nails, while driving on the 347 should never be trusted either!! Other than that, the skys the limit for women, as soon as they stop asking for guidance concerning their lives. | | | |

Don't know...I'm a guy. Whatever they want to focus on.
I don't believe that women entering the workforce led to a decline in family values. I grew up ion a home with a working mother and believe I have been brought up with good values.
This is 2008, I think there are many people that wish for the old days of Leave it to Beaver. Not gonna happen folks. We are not going back in time, we can only make the future better. Very rarely can a family of 4 live the ideal American lifestyle on one salary nowadays. I think that a man a woman need to focus on finding a successul balance between their home and careers. Sorry I have to disagree, as well do as many statistics. There is a direct link with make teen suicides and duel income families, as well as divorce rates. My wife is well educated and had a professional career. She decided to stay at home with the children, and to be honest its for the better. We make plenty of money on 1 salary and still able to keep up with the Jone's with a nice house and 2 cars. There are countless studies showing that children raised with a stay at home parent are better educated, successful and adapted to society. Read "Daycare Deception" and there are perethra of studies on this subject, the only case that shows that childcare is succesfull is if the parant is severly under-educated. If you and your wife want to both work and have childcare for your children, then that is fine. But I am argueing that is not impossible, or even hard to have a single income family in this decade. I am also stateing that children brought up in dual income family have a statistical disadvantage when compaired to those who have a stay at home parant. There is also a larger enviromental impact, and the economic gain is actually negative in some cases. | | | |
