Would you become a house husband?

I suspect that this discomfort at the idea among some men is just another sign of repressed homosexuality.

You may be right, some mens egos wouldnt allow it.

Nah it's because they know they would be ******* bored with only under 5s to talk to all day.

I think that's rather sad, a parent that would think that about their own child.

What could be more joyful than making someone else smile for the first time and watching them develop in to a person?

Oh!

It's not sad at all. Spending time with your kids is great but you need grown up interaction as well or you will go potty.

In a heart beat I would, I've seen all the totty hanging around the school gates waiting to pick up their kids, find a few that are single mums and vulnerable and lay them like a carpet!

Of course, but isnt that what your partner and parent>baby coffee mornings are for ?

I take it CUK does not count as grown up interaction?

[ratewhore]

with pre-school children - no, it's too much like hard work. Any dad knows this.

now the kids are older, too right I would !!!

Yes. So clearly most people would agree that interaction with adults is necessary for a normal existance, and wanting it isn't "sad". So why are you saying it is? Other than the fact you seem to struggle with it a bit?

It's an ideal training ground for parents to be.

Never said anything of the sort. Do you have a problem reading or understanding what I wrote?

I said it's sad a parent wouldnt want to stay at home with their toddler.

Just because you're a homemaker, doesnt mean you have to spend all day and night either on the playmat with the child or chained up in the kitchen. Why do you presume all stay at home parents should have no interaction with adults just because they look after a child all day? For instance, you can take your child out to the park and interact with adults like your partner or other parents as I previously stated.

Other than the fact you seem to struggle with it a bit?

I dont struggle with it at all thanks ....
