I know a few dads that have opted to stay at home and let their wife bring home the bacon. Many people think that this is unnatural and that is the man's place to be outside the home working, and that eventually he will get depressed. I disagree with this. I think that people should get their heads out of the stone age and realize that this works out quite well for some families.

Yes it can practically be possible and what is wrong in it,it is very similar to the fact that a women decides to sit back and not to join a job or pursue her career.I think it can work out well, it can be or rather should be given a try.

I also dont see anything wrong with this, men changing what is supposed to be the 'norm' is harmless and I am seeing many men that enjoy being at home and looking after the kids after all its still a 'job'.

True, I think that most of the people that disagree are men. They might feel like this isn't their role in life. But you are right suck it up! Stay at home moms rock why would it be any different if its dads?

If the need arises, why not? There are a lot of things to do inside the house. I think there’s nothing wrong for those husbands who tender the kids and do the household chores instead of their wife. For me it’s a noble work!

I think a stay at home dad is just as important as a stay at home mom. Women who stay at home to look after the kids and take care of the household have a very important job. I think men are quite capable of doing this as well.
