I agree with the majority of responses--that the man should be head of household, but in no way some sort of dictator over the wife. The union should be a partnership of best friends. What I am worried about, however, is that the concept of marriage seems to be growing obsolete. I don't know about everyone else, but most of my friends have been abandoned and devastated by the so-called best friend they intended to spend the rest of their life with and help raise their children. Seemingly, more and more, everybody has been reduced to somebody's "Baby's Mama" or "Baby's Daddy" among a smorgasbord of half and step-children with a wide variety of last names. Everyone seems disposable now because they left hair in the sink yesterday morning or forgot to take the trash out last night. Is anybody happily married?
