On contrary, about 80% male white collars in Bejing choose to work and raise their family instead of being a house-husband. What does this suggest? Traditional, the man usually burden the responsibilty to raise the family and the wife handles the chores and do the house work at home and take care of their husband and children. But the situation has changed as the time changes. Some males would like to be house-husbands. While others still have negative opinions. For them, raising his family is his responsibilty. How can he let her wife work outside? Meanwhile, they are also afraid that his friends will look down him if he is a house-husband. Some experts say that these house-husbands can make the family more harmonious. The dads can have more time to communicate with their children and wife. This is really good. What do you think? Will you choose to be a house-husband?

To let his wife raise the family is a disgrace for the man. At present, in China both husband and wife work outside to support their family because the ordinary families are not rich. Their parents take care of the child. Is this good?

This may be an idealistic view of a family but I feel firmly about this. Children should be raised by both parents as equally as possible. I know that this seems unrealistic but I will believe in it until I'm a husband/father and proven wrong.

Both the husband and wife work outside to make money. Their children are raised by their parents. However, it is better to do the house chores together.
