IF they both work outside the home ; then YES ..share everything equally .... BUT; if one of them stays hOME all day ..then that partner should do housework and take care of the kids etc ... +5

Hmmm...the question of all questions, huh? I think there is equal responsbility - i.e. you both equally created the children and you both equally live in the house, right? So the responsibility should be equal. Now, there could be an agreement between the partners - i.e. one works, one does not, and that may change the ability of one to do more than the other, and as such may exist then the work can be divided, right? Just my opinion...

No. Im a firm believe that a womans place is in the house. Thus it should be her job to take care of the house and the kids. And Yes im Sexist...so what?

yes your joint account should pay for those services

Do they both have equally demanding full-time jobs? I think there should be a sharing of everything which is mutually decided between the two of them, based on how much available time each one has. If one of them works a 60-hour week outside the home and the other one works 35 hours a week, it is unfair to expect the one with the longer hours to equally share the burdens of running the home and taking care of the child(ren). Happy Monday! :)

If both parents work outside the home absolutely especially if both work full time jobs. How fair is it that a woman work eight hours at a job and then have to be the only one who works at the home which is a full-time job in itself. If, however, she doesn't work outside the home or only part time, she should have more responsibility, but the same should apply if the man, for whatever reason, doesn't work (though I think a real man takes care of his family). As far as child care, the child is half his,so he should take on his share of responsibilty as well.

maybe. depends on the outside workload of the couple

If the female works outside the home you better freaking believe it. How arrogant of a man to expect the woman to do everything. A marriage is called a partnership. In terms of child care, this is how I see it. I think men get terribly screwed when it comes to custody battles, etc. However, if a man isn't willing to take care of his children like change diapers, etc that he has shown he is not an equal partner in raising the kids.
