God bless you sir. So often when this sort of thing happens the men can't handle it emotionally. Having grown up in the 50s and 60s I can understand and sympathize. But for better or worse our world has changed, at least for the time being, and women are increasingly the ones making the most money or at least have the potential for making the most money in a family.

For a time in the early 80's that was the case in my family and it hurt my husband deeply. Fortunately, he finally got the job that advanced his career. It doesn't always happen and it doesn't matter really. If there is love and willingness to work together the family will do well no matter who the biggest bread winner is. Again God bless you.

Well, thank you it has not been easy, but I think that a lot of today's daddies are part of a second wave of potential "stay at home" and "work from home" generation. So, yes, the trail was blazed. It's a great option to have for parents.

It's funny but I just posted 1 Corinthians 13 on a different thread and we keep it posted on the back door to keep our lives grounded.

For all the flap and claptrap that liberals try to do when they are bending the words of St. Paul (Colossians 3). Corinthians is really the one that we focus on the most.
