　　For many decades, in a traditional family, the father is regarded as the breadwinner, while the mother is supposed to become housewives be responsible for household chores and child rearing. But today, a new trend uprises: there is a growing number of househusbands. There are mainly two reasons.

　　To start with, thanks to the progress of society, the obsolete gender stereotype has gradually been removed or at least weakened. Since one century ago when women were finally entitled the right to vote, their social status has been constantly on the rise, which is manifested in both education and career. To a large extent, we today have already realized gender equality in many countries, so women begin to take on roles once dominated by men for years, vice versa. Also, as people become more tolerant and respectful to others’ personal option, males who want to stay at home and take care of children do not need to face others’ judgments or even mocks like before.

　　Secondly, for some families, it is a realistic and beneficial choice for the mother to work full-time and the father to stay at home. A fundamental reason is that the mother has better career prospect and hence is able to earn more money for the family. In addition, there are women who have strong career ambition and feel exhausted and frustrated to spend years at home for children. To avoid family conflicts and help the wife to restore confidence, the husband is willing to give up his own career and take the responsibility for child care. The last but not least realistic reason why the father stays at home to look after children is he wants to give himself a break in career and wants to spend more time with children.

　　In general, if the couple can reach agreement on who goes to work and who stays at home, it is a positive trend for more fathers to opt for family by quitting jobs, as women today are capable of doing almost all professions once taken by men and men can enjoy more happy time with children.
