A man's role as a house husband.

After years of being the breadwinner,while my wife stayed home with the kids, my wife and I switched roles a few months ago. (I have gone back to school and have a year or so left on my degree) Until I complete my schooling,I'll be Mr. Mom. I'm not going to lie -- it's been tough. My wife ran the house better than I do. I did most of the cooking before, so that hasn't been a switch -- but my wife kept better track of things around here. After a few months though, I'm starting to get my groove. I think men can do as good a job around the house, it just depends on the individual.

My husband an I both took off the first 9 months of our boys' lives. They were preemies and we could do it so we did. We took on 2 other children to watch during the day, one worked out the other didn't. At 9 months I went back to work because I made more money and carried the insurance. My husband stayed hom with 3 boys and was awesome! He took them everywhere; zoo, children's museum, parks, airport, you name it. They had a great role model. The women at the park would give him looks. Partly because he was a big guy with piercings and tattoos with 3 small boys all the same age, the other probably because the little guy we watched was black and people were trying to figure out how he could have 2 white and one black child. All the boys are 8 now and I think the experience of having a male caregiver so young was great! And my husband was a chef so he was a great cook already.

my personal view regarding this matter is, why are men letting this happen, arent they thinking that they are the one to work and provide the family?i hate to see this,,most of my friend are working very hard to support the famil because thier husband is not working very hard and just want to set and experience the life inside the house but cant change the truth, ladies are the housewifes and husbands are the men,

I also have some male friends who act as a house husband because their wife can earn more than them or they like to be a house husband..surely the househusband can do a good job, such as cooking, baby care, etc... I think whether a man would like to be a house husband depends on the nature of the man...

welll men can also make gud home makers..after all we live in a society which talks of equal right for men and women..may b this ways life for a certain couple may improve and finally its all about the understanding between the two

I am a woman so I would think my opinion wouldn't be aas creditable as a mans for this subjest matter... But I think a man can do just as well at home as any woman could. I applaud any man that would take on this task ,as it really is a lot of work . Just enjoy the time with your kids as they grow up so very fast.

now in a competitive world, actually it doesnt mean, who is taking care at home, either there is no difference between the roles played by men or women, now every one treating as we are equal ,so we can share the work load both at office and at home, so it is not wrong men doing kitchen work, or any other work a traditional woman is doing for a long time.

Oh I know a lot of men who are great with the kids some are better than the woman, my husband is not a house husband but he does know how to do all of these things as is very good in the home, so I think it is great and a lot of men would prefer to do this than do their daily outside jobs.

I dont think it matters, I would love to stay home all day and have home duty and take care of the kids. but after a while it would get boring i guess..

there is nothing wrong with that.men can do the house hold just like a woman if he wants to.every one has their own way of running a home or a business and what works for you may not work for someone else.I would have loved for my husband to watch the kids while i worked,who better to supervise the kids than the people who made them.I think it's great.
