SAHD Lessons

Choose not between God or Mammon. Choose the child. But make sure to help him study; she'll do all right on her own.

Minister Vini Nunez chose stay-at-home-dadding rather than fight for a full-time life in the Church. Steve Haderlein left corporate-banking and learned quickly that the SAHD life, "isn't for wimps," but that it would give him more time with his two kids, now 13 and 9, as a high school teacher. Both are happy with their choices.

Today, all is right with the SAHD world, except for the one note of concern from a British study finding that stay-at-homes diminished the test scores of their sons. Daddy's girls, however, don't rely on him to crack the academic whip and do just fine. Or is it just that they don't listen to anything he says?
