If you're married and having kids, one of the parents should be raising the child full time, not some child care institution. Are you seriously not able to understand the point being made here about the real problem? What does it say about us that both parents must work? Think about that instead of worrying about your next perceived "witty" comeback. You're commenting often, but your'e not saying a damn thing. Old maybe, wise, not showing it here.
As for the pecker in pocket, no kidding Sherlock. If you knew how well I take care of my girls and help their mothers, you'd be surprised. As for paranoid, not at all, nothing to be paranoid about. Don't even know how that mixes with this.
If we raise better kids, we raise a better society. The saying goes, children are our future, yet we have child care institutions raising them during the most important five years of their lives?

You don't have a subject, imo- in the sense that I think you are being overly concerned about one parent staying home, etc.
I wasn't home, virtually EVER. My kids came out just fine, they had a good mom, I guess in this situation you face, you are the good dad. My wife WAS home, but she did daycare, which was a nightmare for me when I was home. (God, how do they do it? ) She was overwhelmed, and certainly not taking care of our children ( our own) in the classical sense.
Slippery Rock State College, childhood development. a/k/a - get high and have fun in school on daddy's nickel- that's where my ex-wife went.
My ex- wife has the pedigree of a semi-high-level FBI agent as an oldest, two college professors in the middle, and an amazing artist as her youngest, also, he's studying my uncles' art. (
Phillip Fike--Hey Wade- you remember when some called me the "most interesting man in the world- beer commercial guy? ...as in, b.s.? ----- Google my uncle- we did not get along, but I assure you he was interesting, my vote for the true "guy". HATED me and less so my little bro-- Me-- Gov't trained pure killer, that's what he always called me to my face to his brother, my dad, in addition to our extended family) He's the goldsmith- metal, glass, niello guy at (mostly) Wayne State. Awesome liberal.
All with no dad around in those formative years. (Dakota will be pleased to know they are all semi-commie liberal dems, though I can sway the oldest, at times š )
I'm sure your kids will be just fine. Stop sweatin' it, is all I'm sayin'. , and I have to say a lot to say a little around here, as guys like you are not hearing me. I understand that, I was young once, knew everything, back then.
