I have been a stay at home father for the past 16 years and its the only thing I will ever want to do. I once worked before I met my second wife but I don't have to because she makes a great deal of money. I've told her that I feel that I am only good at being a father and a husband, it makes me happy. She is fine with that and tells me that I don't ever have to return to work if I don't want. Also that being a SAHD is a full time job.
