Stay at home moms, but whats the dad worth?

I'm curious, I've seen this all the time but haven't had a leg to stand on until now....

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/05/02/mot...rth/index.html

The article discusses what a stay-at-home mom would make in the corporate world, I want to know what a dad would make who works 8 hours as the bread winner then handles the kids for an additional 6 hours till the mom comes home....

What's he worth

Perhaps the whole arguement wouldn't need to be made if the male persuasion would learn that women just want and need to be acknowledged.

Is that still a struggle? Haven't seen it in my life, of course I know that doesn't mean it isn't happening.

wow... thats a pretty skewed opinion.

when dad's come home, the first thing mom does is throw the baby into dad's arms...

and in that same vien, dad works 2 jobs. the day job that gets income, and then works at home with the caretaking, cleaning, and other chores around the home...

bottom line is and has always been, what's your time worth per hour?

Taking care of the kids and running the household is definately a full time job. So Dads who have a workplace job and come home to take the second shift of the "in-home" job are really working two jobs. Nobody ever makes a story out of that.

Of course there are many Dads who don't even touch the the "in-home" job and those guys need a slap in the head.
