My wife makes a few bucks more than I do (for the moment!) and we both work full time and we have a son. She works from home 3 days a week and keeps him with her most of that time.
I don't have a problem with it but I grew up with it really. There were times when my Mom made more than my Dad as he was in the service. He also worked very early hours at that time and was home by around noon every day. So #1 I got caught ditching a lot (caught in the shower with a girl more than a few times) #2 Dad was home for the kids during that time in our lives after school and such. Mom worked a bit late and brought home more bacon. I think I handle it better than my Dad but I can't say that I don't with that I made enough so that my wife didn't have to work. We've been faced with a couple of opportunities here and there where we could move to a lower cost of living state and my salary would support us. The downside is that we really enjoy life where we are and she simply doesn't want to STOP working but she would love to cut back to part time. Her work is supportive of women who want to do that so that is what we're trying to do now...as soon as I find a job making more money.
It's rough for me because I want to give her the ability to be with our son and of course that's the best place for our son to be during the day. Though he does enjoy all the hotties we leave him with at day care it seems.
My wife knows a few chicks who have house husbands and frankly I think it'd be great. I love bon bons.
