I am a proud stay-at-home Dad and it is one the greatest privileges in my life. However, this opportunity comes with much responsibility and sacrifice. Just making the decision to abandon the traditional work force (voluntarily or otherwise) to stay at home with your child is the ultimate of sacrifices.
As stay at home Dad’s we are faced with many challenges. First and foremost, we must adapt to our new role in the house hold. In addition to caring for and nurturing our child throughout the day, we are now responsible for all things domestic in the home (laundry, meal planning, cooking, grocery shopping, cleaning, etc.). This, in and of itself, can be a huge shock to the system (let’s face it; many of us just aren’t geared for this!). In addition, for those of us that exercise or endeavor to run a home based business, we have to find a way to include these additional responsibilities in our daily routine as well.
