Once while being prepped‘ for a television interview,1 was chatting with the host about stay—at—home fathers．I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay．a(chǎn)t．home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife．Many families now take earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home．
At that point，one of the male crew members commented，almost to himself but loud enough for my benefit，“It should be the better parent who stays home．”A 10t of guys say things like that．Usually it’s code for。，”My wife(read：any woman)is the better parent．”
1 was a stay-at-home father for eight years。so his declaration made me bristle．It implied mat our family’s choice could only have been correct if was a“better”parent than my wife．
