So, I had issues with this, because I haven't seen a lot of stay-at-home dads before and I thought men would judge me,

所以我又遇到问题了,因为我之前没怎么见过全职奶爸,我觉得男人可能会议论我,
so get this, I said this -- please don't be offended -- I said, "Uh, you know, that sounds boring.
想到这个,我就说--恕我冒犯--我说,“呃,你知道,这听上去很无聊。
And what do stay-at-home moms do all day, anyway?"
你说全职妈妈每天都干些啥?”
She smiled at me a smile only a woman full of knowledge can smile and said,
她冲我笑了笑,这个笑容充满智慧,说,
"Well, this should be easy for you. And it will save us some money, it seems like a no-brainer."
“这对你来说应该很轻松。并且会替我们省下一些钱,对你来说带小孩又不废脑子。”
Fast-forward six months, I'd been a stay-at-home dad for about a week.
半年之后,当我已经做了全职奶爸一周。
I was standing in my bathroom, looking into the mirror crying, tears -- running all down my face.
我在卫生间里对着镜子,哭着,泪流满面--泪流满面。
