The number of fathers staying at home taking care of their children has significantly increased in the past few years. I will discuss the reasons behind
this
phenomenon and why I think it is a positive development.
The relationship between men and women has radically evolved since the twentieth century. Linking Words
Thus
, a girl nowadays can work as much as a boy does and the latter can take responsibility for the kids. Linking Words
For example
, in my family, my mother is a working lawyer and it is usually my father who takes care of my siblings and me.
The fact that more men stay inside to look after their kids constitutes a positive development for society because children are now raised by both their parents equally. Linking Words
Moreover
, traditionally, the father would be very absent in his children’s lives. Linking Words
However
, now that things have changed, kids are raised in a more healthy and equal environment, where the husband and wife have the same rights and importance, which inspires them. Linking Words
For instance
, little girls are inspired by their working mothers, and boys learn that it is possible for them to stay inside to take care of their future son or daughter.

To conclude
, the increase in the number of men taking responsibility for their babies can be explained by the evolution of relationships, which has allowed women to go out to work more. I believe it is positive for society because now that both parties are equal in the couple, boys and girls are inspired to become like their parental figures and they learn that it is possible for them both to work and stay at home.Linking Words
