This particular article really did switch the light on for me as far as this particular topic goes. Nevertheless there is one position I am not too comfortable with so while I make an effort to reconcile that with the actual main theme of your issue, permit me observe just what the rest of your readers have to say.Very well done.

I wish I could win the lotto and be a stay-home-dad. I often ponder the very things you so articulately described here. Thanks for showing me I'm not the only one! So true, so true, so true.

When u were little, I got even less time with u during the week. Before u went to school, I had to take u to a babysitter (someone that I didn't even know I had to trust with my child), then get to work. Then after work pick u up and spend a couple of hours with u before bedtime. When u started school, I had to switch to evening shift just so I could put you on the school bus. I only had about an hour getting you ready for school, then I would be there to get you off the bus in the evening and see your for maybe 10 minutes before I went to work till midnight. Weekends werer the only time we really got to spend quality time together, but I was usually so tired, that on Saturdays, I would sit u in front of the TV to watch cartoons for a few hours just to get a little more sleep. But our quality time is what counted and we did make the most of it!!! Yes, I do understand the pain u feel when u have to leave, but be thankful that the kids are there with Fe and not a babysitter.
