@RobertA-hq3vz I got to be a stay at home dad for a few months when my son was young and if I was in that position permanently I'd end up creating another source of income while becoming ripped AF and teaching my son to be a absolute beast in every way. Staying at home and doing the cooking and cleaning and looking after kids is easy AF and genuinely fun, but women are boring so of course when they are in their own presence they get bored too, the problem comes from within but they think the solution is external.

What's traditional though? Because that 1950s kitchenaid housewife who does chores and looks after the kids is a absolutely TINY blip in history. How is that traditional at all? Traditional is the multi-millenia of history where the vast majority of the work took place in the home, not a factory. Those women brought value in the form of money into the house, from the house while doing the house chores, and due to the lack of modern machinery, the heavy lifting the man did was much harder and took much more effort. Things are easier now in regards to labor, and these convinces have led to women having the ability to get the basics of housing, transportation ect without having to be under their husband's, fathers, brothers or some other male relatives care who could do the required heavy lifting to sustain life. That is why we hear so much these days "I don't need no man!", and look that's fantastic, but if that's the case, then stop looking for dudes based on money, height and strength and start looking at moral character.... Ain't gonna happen until we get some kind of cultural course correction. That being said, if people aren't gonna be FAMILY oriented, then I see little reason to pursue marriage, and if one pursues marriage the family needs to be the primary orientation of both the man and woman. Now what happens to any individual if you take them and place them in a environment where they are completely taken care of with a bunch of spare time and few responsibilities? They take it for granted. Unless they are on top of themselves and very self aware of their own tendencies as humans, anyone will begin to become ungrateful within a 10yr period. With those two things in mind, this 1950s "tradwife" trend is gonna end predominantly in divorce and for this reason I require that my wife always provide a income in some way shape or form, also, traditionally men taught their sons and women taught their wives, the wives didn't teach their sons unless they were very young and with that in mind it is my "traditional" responsibility to teach my son, not the government, not my wife, not "the village".

@RobertA-hq3vz yes, 2 less than 10yrs, but I didn't say 2, it was more than that and ultimately what I've said is true for all time. If you can't enjoy your own company, don't ask others to endure it, and if you cannot be joyful about your own children and love spending time with them more than your friends, then something is very wrong inside you.

@RobertA-hq3vz no one is born with skills, of course you have to learn them and I've learned a lot. I grew up working for my parents business and saw how much work went in to it, but there are a ton of other types that aren't so demanding. Buy a small CNC and make after market knife parts and such. I live in a state where small farms are very common along with tons of small soap companies ect all run out of homes by stay at home moms. Is it hard? Sure, that's why it's called work, but all of life is work and if you shun that then you'll live a pretty miserable life. I can build a house from the ground up and have done it, I can build a sauna, grow a garden, take care of any farm animal, fix nearly any issue in most cars (not gonna mess with electric) and operate most heavy equipment and I can learn and love to, I'd like to learn a few languages and speak a little of a few, I'd like to learn a few instruments and have played a few, I like to hunt, hike, fish and dance. There is more that I could do from home and would like to learn than I have life left and would enjoy learning those things with my kids and having that as part of their curriculum. I'm 33, helped raised 14 of my second cousins starting when I was 11yrs old till I was 18 cooking, changing their diapers, cooking their meals and taking them to school, daycare and parks, I took care of my great grandparents in their final years and kept the hone from organizing the shop to helping my great grandparents change their depends, mowing the half acre yard and re-staining the nearly 100yr old house. So no, I don't accept excuses, not from myself and not from others. There is no imagining, I do them while I work already and if I had more time it would still be filled with things to do that I find great joy in and if one does not, that's called depression.
