Someone has to take care of the kids. It's rotten, unfair and
inefficient that women have to give up their careers to do it. But
given that as the only choice, that's what they do.
There are probably a surprising number of men who would do it as well
I should have said "a parent" but the honest truth is that 99.9995% of
the time, it's women who do it. More power to the men who do, but most
men i know havea very rose tinted idea of what it's like to be a
SAHM.
Agreed !
