Summary of “Changing Roles: Stay-at-Home Dads”
The article “Changing Roles: Stay-at-Home Dads” talks about the role of “Dads.” Nowadays, the society of parental roles has changed, and more and more men with marriage play an important role both in their families and job. They not only have to take care of their children at home but also have to do their job well. According to the reading, fathers today are expected to take more responsibility for child rearing than they did before. Also, some people like seeing the image of fatherhood include the role of caretaker in addition to provider. As far as I am concerned, society now regards fathers as important as mothers. It is not “men outsides, women insides” anymore. They should be viewed as equal. To sum up, fathers in raising children are more and more significant.
