The differences between gender roles are not so apparent anymore. Men are not always the typical breadwinners and many women are not stay-at-home mothers. An article by Beaupré, Dryburgh, and Wendy (2010) described the transition that many men are going through. According to Beaupré, et al., (2010), fathers were once considered the forgotten parent. “Until recently studies on the family focused mainly on the mothers” (Beaupré, et al., 2010). Fortunately, both parents are now being focused on. Fathers today are much more involved in the pregnancy and birth of their child and their child’s life in general (Beaupré, et al., 2010). Beaupré, et al., (2010) explained that women’s involvement in the labour force could be a factor to this change. Women are more educated than they were in previous years. And while women want to work more, men want to be more involved in their children’s lives (Beaupré, et al., 2010). Fatherhood is occurring later in adulthood. Research stated that the majority of men are very satisfied with their involvement in their children’s lives. (Beaupré, et al., 2010).

So when you see

In my opinion the flag is a discussion people need to have. Not enough people know what the flag means to America, or they don’t care. The American flag is a symbol of independence, liberty, and freedom, the people who died for it, it’s a symbol of America. People need to be corrected when they mistreat it.

In regard to Richard Eskow’s view into the households themselves, there is a clear line of demarcation with what the dream feeds and what one would receive in real life. In correlation with monetary inconsistencies, it is a fact that now individuals will find it almost impossible to be a stay-at-home parent. In simpler times, a middle class family could live “rather comfortably” (Eskow) off of a single parent’s earnings. Yet, in this day and age, not only is it unmanageable, but according to Eskow, “having a child is now the single best predictor that a woman will end up in financial collapse.” (Eskow).
