St. Joseph, Pray for Us

From Australia:

Men should swap their role as breadwinner for the "mummy track" employment path and end relationship tensions over work and family, according to a national discussion paper to be released today. . .

Fathers of young children are likely to be working a greater number of hours than all men. When their youngest child is under five, fathers do about the same housework as men in childless couples.

"Arguably, this working pattern is damaging to men's physical, mental and emotional health," the paper says.

"It bestows on them the overwhelming financial responsibility for family, insufficient breaks from work and insufficient time for family and intimate relationships."

That is a tough situation, if you're the metrosexual type. But for others, we have one piece of advice: Take it like a man.
