    Working DAD....most definatly....

    Don’t have the skills or patience J to be a House Husband full time.

    Don’t get me wrong…I don’t mind doing my bit on Saturday’s and the odd Monday during school holidays when she is at work…..but that’s all I can manage…..


    I also make ‘Guest’ appearances on school runs now and again …………to tick the box.


    Full time ‘House Husband’…..Not on your nelly…..


    I love my job and wouldn’t change that for the world…..and it pays well too, more then she would ever make (She just likes to spend it... :) )….. which is an added benefit.


    Leave her to deal with the little monsters….errrr….i mean darlings….. J
    :jTo be Young AGAIN!!!!...what a wonderfull thought!!!!!:rolleyes:

    My husband is the Stay At Home Parent & I'm utterly thankful. He's much better at it than I was, the lads have loads more fun & I bring in a wage & the occasional takeaway.


    People keep telling me I have beautifully behaved children - because my husband has done all the hard work of bringing them up properly.

    Don't let *anyone* tout the stay at home role as easy - it devalues all parents.
