MAN OF THE HOUSE: Benefits of Having a Stay-At-Home Husband

He Understands What It Means to Run a Household

Most women who work full-time must also come home and take care of the home, whether that includes children or not. Some men feel that cooking and cleaning are a woman’s responsibility, even if she’s put in a 40 hour work week, and most don’t give their wives the suppport they need to balance it all. After all, what’s so hard about washing a few dishes, doing some laundry and changing a diaper? Men who have worked the majority of their lives believe that it’s their job to bring home the bacon while their wives fry it up, and may not realize how difficult it is to actually maintain a household. But with a tough economy and job loss hitting home, a man who finds himself suddenly unemployed who is now a house husband will quickly come to appreciate all the hard work that their wives put into running the house before it became their responsibility.
