jakeinthebox88: Some call it traditional values, others call it a cage.
I happen to think it's a 50-50 split--it took both of you to make the kid(s), it should be a mutual effort to raise them.

My mother worked in a professional career that was, in those days, reserved for men. And at a time when very few women even worked at any job. I have always felt that it is a 50-50 split. There is currently a considerable move of women returning to the traditional stay-at-home wife/mother, and the women who are doing it are doing it by choice. On the other hand, I personally think kids should be reared by the parents, however dominant one may be in the role, and NOT raised by day care mills and nannies, etc...
If I was younger and had kids, my wife would be a stay at home mom. My own Mother took a break from her job to raise my brother and me. I would not be into day care at all. Listen to Dr. Laura, thats the way I feel. kids need to be raised by there Mother, not some day care worker...and I do not care if you don't agree with me.

Ok, my dad use to work and my mom took care of the home.
Now that they are older, my dad takes care of the home and mom is working.
I would love to say at home, cook, clean and raise my children while my husband works.
It use to be a culture thing, now its a choice. Though I think that both parents working isn't right if you can't take care of your children. Why have them in the first place?

Is not a vacation but if you enjoy doing it.... I say I would rather do that because I love to cook and clean and I have taken care of children and I enjoy it. Other people just can't stand it.

The "joint decision" comes right before that part... you know, when you're humping like bunnies and stuff.
Now play nicely, children, or no one is getting ice cream.
Honestly, who cares? What ever happens to work for what ever situation is what is best. I've worked and supported the household while my ex stayed home with the kids. I've stayed home with the kids while my ex supported the household. It's all good...kids were happy that's all that matters in the end.
