Some interesting legislation, by the sound of it. What do we think?

(Personally, I'm of the opinion that anything that combats the "oh, it's only the women who want to stay at home" attitude is positive)

'A lot of the solutions for women involve men as well,'' a senior government source said. ''It's not just a women's issue.''

I couldn't agree more. Not to mention, for every man who stays at home more, there is the potential for women in the workplace. And maybe potential for them to both create more balanced and fulfilling lifestyles.
