Why isn't parenting a shared role, as it should be? lol, I don't know, there's just something natural about it. But all i know is theres nothing like a mothers love and fathers don't compare, at all. I'm very grateful that my mother was the primary caregiver for me. As for ur statement about it being unpaid work....everything doesn't have to be valued in economic terms. Having a upstanding and virtuous son who loves her dearly is a better recompense for any mother than millions of dollars...trust me.

My point is that fathers have to see themselves in that role too, but because so many men seem to think the everyday (unpaid) labour of raising children is women's work, they're able to privilege their own career and education over that of the wife. Like I said, if a woman is such an asset that the cons of sacrificing her academic and career aspirations would outweigh those of being an academic/career woman first and foremost, then yes in such cases it's justified for her to displace childrearing from its primary position. In such a case the husband would have to step up and do many of the things his wife no longer has the time or energy to do.

    Safferz;937227 wrote: lol you're right, "stay at home dad" was tongue in cheek But the truth is that I'm just not into how the burden of parenting and childcare falls on the mother, particularly in our culture, and how women are the ones who tend to sacrifice education and career to have families. I know I'll have a kid or two at some point, but I expect my (future) husband to take paternity leave as well when my maternity leave is up, among other things. That's reasonable if the wifes academic abilities and earning power justify it so.

Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers." - Socrates (attributed by Plato, 4th century BCE) "I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words... When I was young, we were taught to be discreet and respectful of elders, but the present youth are exceedingly wise [disrespectful] and impatient of restraint" - Hesoid (7th century BCE) Yes, indeed people are biased against and have an especially critical eye for the vices of succeeding gnerations, even though these shortcomings may have been just as prevelent during their own haydays. But I do think there has been a marked deterioration in morals and virtue present in the current generation of Millenials, coupled with a selfishishness and peculiar self-absorbment bordering on narcissism, that truely sets it apart from the perceived generational splits of the past.

    Amazing pictures. Wallahi I love everything about lions. I am in total awe of these mighty and majestic animals. I wonder how many are left in Somalia, if any at all?

The era of Malcolm X, Julias Nyerere, Stokely Carmichael and Franz Fanon (even if only for one year)....truely giants among men.
