From Boys to Men to Boys Again
I come from a long line of men who take this manhood thing seriously. Men who know that they are born to be providers. Men who will go to the ends of the earth to ensure that their families are provided for and who will get physically sick when they can't. Men who hold their mothers on the highest pedestal and do whatever it takes to make sure their mothers are smiling until their last breath. Times change and we evolve with them but what I am witnessing lately is blowing my whole mind. While it was not expected for women to work outside of the home 40 years ago, mostly all women choose to work now until they have kids. Even then, most return to work once the kids start school. This is tied to the cost of living and how much higher it is now than it was 40 years ago but more importantly it is tied to self worth. Some men seem to think our working and bringing in money means they can take a back seat now. Um, no Sir. What it means is that we are relieving your burden
