Not sure where you get that from. Yes, I pamper my wife but I've done a
lot for women to get ahead. I've hired women for jobs previously only
held by men and paid them equally. I also encourage my daughter and
granddaughters to take a stand where needed.

We jointly feel that if you have children you should take full
responsibility to raise them. That means one spouse stays home. yes,
that may be very 1950s but it was our choice to put family ahead of
additional income. IMO, old fashioned is still good.

There may be some cases where two incomes are needed, but if mom is
working so you can have a Volvo instead of a Chevy you are short
changing your kids.
