Even after this I was met with much suspicion, but not by my son. Not every reaction I have received has been a negative one. Some people actually think I'm doing a brave and noble thing, although they may whisper later that I'm a little cracked. Full-Time Dads have a place in society. We have the right to be given the respect that is due us.
Men are perfectly capable of being nurturing, caring, loving caregivers for our children.
We have to step forward and let society know this. We must make a change in the outdated stereotypes of men being only stern and emotionless, and take the steps necessary to ensure that our next generation no longer carries stereotypes of men and women. We must step forward because it is just and right that we raise children, because it's good for our kids, and for us. It's great to find a publication that recognizes that being a Full-Time Dad is okay. It's nice to know there are other men out there who have chosen to take the saine road as I have as a Full-Time Dad.
