- mantas 2y agoPeople I know that do this usually offload kids to kindergarten, hire nanny or let SO handle them. Or combination of above.

- benjaminwootton 2y agoJust because you decide to split things like this doesn’t mean it’s sexist. I earnt a lot more than my wife did and we jointly decided she would stay at home for a few years and I would throw myself into work to cover the family income. I would have been more than happy to switch roles if the shoe was on the other foot!

- CraigJPerry 2y agoCut out the stuff you don’t value, the amount of stuff you can do when you don’t own a TV and never visit news or social media sites[1] is astounding. The downside is your reply to any questions like “have you seen <popular show>?” will perpetually be blank stare, shrug [1] 1 exception - a ruthlessly curated rss feed reader, and this site - although i’m experimenting with using this site via a “best of” aggregation feed. For all popular stories here there are a 2nd wave of thoughtful posters who arrive to a thread a day or 2 late. I’m thinking they are also filtering similarly but i have never asked.
- VoodooJuJu 2y agoOne cannot. One or more of those things is suffering, and I hope it's not his kids, though people like this usually delegate childcare to their spouse or paid care.
