Dad the New Mom

Yes of course - because in order to help take care of one's own children one must grow breasts and lose a Y chromosome /s

I love the media. So on top of 10-20 year old trends.

Thank you!
It’s like when fathers say that they are “babysitting” the kids. No Dude, you’re parenting.

These poor guys have been so marginalized, they forget who they are. Dads are so important! For boys, to show them what they should be. For girls, to show them who they should pick as a Father for their own children.

“Is Dad the New Mom?”

No, he’s just been unemployed for three years. But, yeah, ABC, spin it to make it sound like more dads are staying home voluntarily.

[BenLurkin]

Insanity.

Research indicates that children reared by only their father do much better in life than those reared by only their mother, suggesting that perhaps “Mom” should be “the new Dad,” although that’s impossible, of course.

I would like to be independently wealthy so that my husband and I could both be full-time parents and community benefactors. Wage-slavery is a drag.

"According to the most recent Census, the number of stay-at-home fathers in the United States has tripled in the past 10 years up to 154,000."

In a country of 300 million that number is pretty insignificant. I much prefer writers who have something to say.

According to the most recent Census, the number of stay-at-home fathers in the United States has tripled in the past 10 years up to 154,000. Yet, these at-home dads are still the exception to the traditional household and many treading in unchartered parenting waters.

Blah blah blah blah...

The fact is, the vast majority of stay home parents are women. The media would love our society to turn into a fully maternal one in the workplace.

It's not happening. Dream on Lefties...

“...her husband Jake Howard-Potter”

How does a man get a hyphenated name? Did he have 2 fathers? Natural and stepfather? Was he married to another man? Typo? Just asking...

[AdamBomb]

Yes and they put their pants on backwards.

BARF........

I’m a stay at home father.

Although I’m divorced and my kids are grown and out of the house.

Life is good :-)

[Melas]

Oh this thread is going to be fun. I was a stay home dad, for 17 years, only going back to work when the youngest was 15.

I saw this report live on nightline. It never stated the reason why so many more men are at home with the kids. There are no jobs for the men. They where all mid thirties to forties with degrees and NO PROSPECTS for wpork while their wives are protected by the status of ‘minorities’ in the work place.

Sometimes you must read between the lines of a story or a news report!
