A hypothetical scenario involving my common place paper, that has the topic of a rise in the number of stay at home dads, is if women would eventually take over as the family provider and the men all became the child care takers. It would be a return of the old, traditional days by the exact opposite. All the fathers in the families would cook, clean the house, and tend to all the needs of the children. They would take the children to school, musical practices, athletic practices, doctors appointments, and birthday parties. The women would go to work all day and bring home the family income, the women would therefore hypothetically hold the power in the family and wear the pants in the relationships. And then men would even begin to take the women's last name in marriage, but probably not I just went to far. This situation would most likely not happen but you never know. First women need to establish gender equality before they could ever take over in this society. This is the only scenario I could come up with at the time. I hope I will be able to write enough in my common place paper to make it worthwhile because I think the topic is pretty relevant, compelling, and timely enough to write a decent paper. I don't really have much else to say about this today though, it sort of sucks trying to find enough to say for certain topics, especially on the weekends when you are not in school mode and could be doing other things at the time.
