...housework. Do you? Women are a lot smarter than men and can earn a lot more money so why should we raise the children and do all the work? I have told my man that unless he starts pulling his weight then I'm going to toss him out and get a nanny. I don't want him working and there's no need for him to. I give him the same pocket money that he used to give me so I am being fair aren't I?

No - sounds like your just trying to get even for something.

Well, I dont think a stay at home parent is a sexist thing.. It can either be the mommy or the daddy. I think its a choice that a couple has to make.. In my case, my husband makes more money than I can possibly at this time so I am staying home.... but he would much rather be here with the kids than at work... He does help around the house and with the kids as much as he can.

hmm.. no i don't agree at all. i think both parents should contribute to the finances and taking care of baby... but especially the mother. the mom has a different bond with her kids then the father does. she has instinct.. while i do believe women are smarter then men in most cases i believe the main parent in a childs life should be the mother... it would feel weird if it wasn't that way. but i mean if you like how thats working out then go you

that is the way my family works, but my dad doesn't get pocket money (he substitute teaches a couple of days a week as his "pocket money"). The only problem is that most men suck at cleaning. It is like they don't even see that the dirt is there, or that there is a dishwasher with spaces for dishes, or that when you drop ice cream on the floor, you have to clean it up otherwise it sticks.

Yep i agree. Ever since my wife went back to work and i got laid off i see now how freakin EASY women have it. Sitting at home, watching tv and every now and then running the dishwasher and then take the kids out for lunch at McDonalds. How freakin hard is that women? You have it made.

Relationships should be 50/50. Would you like it if he told you that your place was in the kitchen and that he didn't want you working? A man needs to feel like he is providing for his family.. keep doing this and it won't be long until your husband replaces YOU.

I think thats a little extreme, you should both do an equal amount of work around the house and taking care of the finances, or else one is going to feel less appreciated, in my opinion

[BeLLeza]

i dont tink this job is either for a man or a woman but more for the person who will do a better job at it, also neither men and women are smarter than each other even though men can be stupid at times but so can women, your being unfair if you throw him out because hes not good at this, even though i am a girl and should be on your side, i think that men and women should be treated equally
