pe, you drop the kids at soccer, piano, ballet, karate etc but when you pick them? how can you give them dinner if you never pick them back to home??? and how about they homework? don't you help them to do their homework???

kalo dilihat dari jadwalnya sih gampang ah...tapi kalo udah ngelakuinnya belum tentu lho pe...masalahnya ngatur anak2 tidak semudah itu, belum lagi kalo mereka ngambek gak mo mandi dsbnya kamu kan musti bujukin mereka, jadwal ngaco karena waktunya molor untuk bujukin mereka dsb. belum lagi kalo mereka minta ditemanin main. maybe you think as house husband it's easy but it's not easy as you imagine it. don't believe it??? you can ask your mom

DISCLAIMER: The scene you have just watched did not intend to make fun of, ridicule, nor degrade mothers (Love you Mom!) and future mothers nor house-husband or future house-husbands. The characters depicted in this dramatization were all fictitious. The above scenario did not happen but could have happened: It was neither implied nor was it related to the author in any possible way. The author hereby denied any association with the above forementioned house-husband. And for the record, the author of this fiction is made out of perfectly good husband-material ......

aku malah bingung kapan bersihin rumah, kapan cuci baju, kapan strika baju? ato semua pake pembantu? hm.... trus itu klu anak nya sudah usia sekolah, gimana klu masih balita?

ahahahahaha love the disclaimer.

I'd better quit this before the BluDonKey give me a low-blow for hijacking her thread....

The questions that one should ask, at least the way I look at it, are these:
1. Do you work for the fun of it? Would you rather go to work than play?
2. Is $50K earned by a husband worth more than $50K earned by a wife?
3. Does it make a husband less of a "man" when the income comes from the wife?
4. Is it better for a family to earn less just to satisfy the myth that the man of the house should be the provider of the family?
5. Is it better to have kids reared at daycare than at home ?
6. Does it matter if the mother or the father rears the kids ?

If my wife earns more than I do and have a much better chance of succeeding in the workplace, I don't mind staying home or working part time and taking care of the kids.

A mansion that is earned by my wife's sweat and blood is still a much better alternative for the family than a rundown low income housing that I earned thru my sweat and blood. It's not about what she earned, it's not about what I earned, it's about what is best for the family.

wahhh pepe...I think I you
can I you? so I can and you?

seriously jarang neh cowok rela kalo bininya jadi "the bread winner". Personally to me it doesn't really matter, if it works, why not?
Dulu pernah baca cerita ttg couple yang punya kembar 3 atau 4 (lupa), krn istrinya make more money dari suami. Suaminya resign dan jadi house husband. Ini si di U.S jadi gak ada pembantu dan kalo ditaro di day care kan mahal dgn 4 anak.

I think Pepe will be a great househusband if only he can remember to pick up the kids once in a while

masalah wanita karir setau gua ada dua sih. sblom ngomel, ini bukan pendapat gua loh tapi kenyataan jaman aja. *tetap pake helm buat jaga2*

pertama adalah paternity. sampe sekarang pria emang dominan. ada kecenderungan untuk kurang menghargai wanita sebagai pihak dalam hal bisnis. karena ini pemimpin perusahaan biasanya jarang ngasih tugas penting karena takut gagal. biarpun dia support 100% persamaan hak wanita, kan juga harus mikir misal perusahaan lain ga suka bisnis ama wanita gimana. kan ga jalan ntar hubungan kerja antar perusahaan.

kedua masalah biologis alias cuti melahirkan. sulit mengejar karir kalo harus cuti beberapa bulan untuk persiapan melahirkan plus beberapa bulan lagi setelah bayi lahir. 1 bulan itu berarti besar dalam bisnis.

anyway ini point sampingan. katanya kan emansipasi wanita. wanita sama ama pria ga ada perbedaan. naahhhh kalo gitu napa minta cowo bukain pintu, tarikin kursi kalo duduk, ngalah ama cewe kalo ngantri ato rebutan sesuatu, dsb.

emansipasi dong. lu yang berdiri me pengen duduk. *kaburrrrr*

ngeliat kalimat azzy mungkin musti didefine yg jelas apa maksud emansipasi, persamaan dalam segala sesuatu? nonsense! jadi maksud dari thread ini bukan masalah emansipasi, tp apakah co (ato ce) bisa terima klu keadaan house husband ada di keluarga mereka?

yg pepe blg can happen if both parties has a very open mind, but in reality, ga segampang goreng emping. ce tetap ada kelemahan nya sebagai pribadi yg lebih feminim (general opinion) dan co tetap sebagai mahluk yg seharusnya melindungi ce krn lebih jantan (general opinion) hanya dalam thread ini soal mencari nafkah dan role yg biasa di housewife jatuh ke husband.. gitu aja.

tp so far opinions nya pada bagus2 kok

waaaaaaa.. thread ini kayaknya bikin pepe jadi the most wanted man in indozone.. hihi..

is that intentional, pepe, or your charm is plainly impossible to hide?

o yah.. this thread also reminded me to this pic:

Gue setuju dengan venny, kalo suami sebagai kepala rumah tangga kerjanya cuma tinggal dirumah doang, padahal dia seger buger sih....... namanya berengsek banget deh..!!! kecuali dia memang mempunyai halangan, entah sakit.... entah cacat.... baru bisa dimaklumi....

Kalo cuma married terus punya suami yg kerjanya cuma goyang2 kaki dirumah nungguin isteri pulang kerja sih.. lebih baik menurut gue gak usah married.. hidup sendiri lebih enak... kita cari duit, buat kita pakai sendiri... hehehe.... buat jalan2... buat shopping.. yang terutama lagi. buat beli vcd/dvd...

wah... laki di rumah gue pergi kerja... udah gitu harus lahirin anak lagi.. weleh... kayak nya kalo sampe punya laki begitu mendingan gak usah married aja deh sekalian.. enakan single hehehe...

Mungkin practical thinking of modern women memang yang seperti ini ya? Makanya di banyak negara yang sudah maju, ce2 yang mandiri makin jarang yang mau menikah. Daripada ngasih makan ke satu co, lebih baik single dan setiap akhir minggu bisa jalan dengan co yang berbeda (just a thought)

hmm... this one can be considered.. hmm......

beda donk... kan laki gak perlu lahirin anak... sedang istri kan emang udah kodrat nya jadi ibu rumah tangga kan.. cuman keadaan ekonomi sekarang aja jadi bini kudu punya karir juga.. ditambah harus lahirin anak.. jadi gimana tuh...?? so sebagai bonus yah bini boleh lah shopping2, jalan2 and ongkang2 kaki nonton vcd hehhee

Kan tinggal dirumah juga ga cuman goyang kaki doang. kalo udah pikiran gini, kasian dong itu para istri yang tinggal dirumah merawat anak. Ntar suami mereka pikir juga, si istri tiap hari ongkang2 goyang2 kaki nonton VCD

nga masalah tapi para suami hrs siap2 menghadapi hukum alam, dlm arti kepala rt beralih ke istri. suka ato tidak suka inilah yg akan terjadi.
Jadi para suami, up to youu..
kalo gua, kalo bisa gua yg cari nafkah, si istri ngurus anak

cari duit bukan berarti kepala keluarga dong? bisa dibedain kan tugasnya? klu istri gaji lebih gede.. kan sayang tuh, klu dua2 mo kerja lain cerita, tp klu salah satu hrs jaga anak?

kita tidak akan pernah bisa mengelak dari hukum alam

hukum alam yg mana? yg kuat menekan yg lemah?
