I'm essentially a sahm although I run a small business but on a very pt basis. I have two small boys - the older of which (3 yrs) was overheard the other day saying 'mummies do cooking and cleaning and daddies go to work'. I'm adamant that my boys will not grow up like some men I dated before marriage - expecting their mum / wife to pick up and coddle them 24/7 but am I setting a bad example by not going out to work? The boys don't see their dad doing much domestic stuff as he works horrid hours and I'm more than happy to do the housework since I'm home more.
