What are your feelings about stay-at-home-dads.?

Question

I am not talking about men who are unable to work. I'm talking about men who are able but choose not to work. Are you for or against this.

Answer 1

my dad lost his job i don't really  get your question though

Answer 2

I work, which sucks but I would like to be a stay-at-home-and-fish dad.  My wife need a better job.

Answer 3

I think any parent who is able to take that position in their childs life are to be commended.

Answer 4

i dont think anything is wrong with it.

to me its just like a stay-at-home-mom

if i could chose a parent to stay home, it'd be im dad. hes cooler :]

Answer 5

Do the mothers make enough money to support the family?  Are the children well taken care of?  Engaged in learning activities?  Able to play outdoors?  Play with other children?  Participate in activities that they enjoy?  Fed nutritious meals?  Provided plenty of outlets for their energy and creativity? Basically all the things a good daycare center will provide?  If so, then I don't see why it would be a bad thing.  Children love to spend time with their fathers, especially fathers that are active participants in their lives.

Answer 6

I am NOT against this. I think its awesome when a dad chooses to spend time w/ its kids instead of going to work.

Answer 7

i don't think there is anything wrong with it

Answer 8

I'm 15... I am all for it... But now days woman just can't make as much money to support a home. Only rarely they might be able to though. That would be kick *** to spend all day with my dad but I can't. Hes a night worker so hes eather asleep or gone. I only really see him on the weekend. He tries though. We like to hit up youtube with a couple beers and watch car wrecks all day on the weekends lol  

Answer 9

i think it quite nice if the dad wont to stay at home with there children there is nothing wrong with it.

Answer 10

I am only for it if he is doing pretty much what stay at home moms do.

If there is a child, then they have to take care of him/her (feedings changing, everything), keep the house clean, cook, etc. This only because what else will they do all day?

I thought about it, being an at home dad, only because I would want to spend every moment with my kids (in my future...hoping :\) and wouldn't want my wife (also in near future hoping :[ ) to go through all that stress and struggle.

If they are lazy, and don't want to work, and expect to lay on the couch and get everything they want, then they deserve nothing but  themselves.  :)
