Well....sorry folks but I had an exceptional childhood and both my parents worked full time. Because my Mom worked, my Dad took on some of her former roles of housekeeping, raising us, cooking, all domestic chores. My Dad was Mr. Mom, and that's the way it works in many other countries....fathers get paternal time off and such to be with their kids, while Mom goes out to work. This is not a 1950, Leave it to Beaver episode. That was just a crock of s*it anyways.
In this day in age...you **need** two incomes...NOT to buy a BMW...but to buy the kids a nice set of clothes and a nice warm house...if you are a working class person. Please...spare me the excuses...been there done it bought the t-shirt.Jay
