• What do you think about men who stay at home to take care of their children?
  
  Traditional job division between men and women is disappearing. There's no fuss about men staying at home doing house work and taking care of their children.
  
  As the chief breadwinner, men sure have their advantages. Among other things, in a women-are-still-prejudiced-against job market men prevail in pay gap and promotion opportunities. But what if, for one reason or another, the wife goes out more often than allows her to take care of the family?
  
  The couple may as well try to shift roles as a change. I know of a friend who used to teach mathematics at a university and was prominent in his career. When he married, he and his would-be wife made a bizarre agreement that they would be breadwinner and householder in turn. Three years after their marriage they had their daughter, and the baby-caring work happened to fall on the husband. Extraordinary as it is, the husband has been doing excellent work at home. And the wife happily goes out every morning, feeling sure that warm supper and giggling daughter await her after a day's tiring work.
