[单项选择]Mother Knows the Best
Once while being prepped for a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay-at-home fathers. I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay-at-home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife. Many families now take earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home.
At that point, one of the male crew members commented, almost to himself but loud enough for my benefit, "It should be the better parent who stays home." A lot .of guys say things like that. Usually it’s code for, "My wife (read: any woman) is the better parent."
I was a stay-at-home father for eight years, so his declaration made me bristle. It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a "better" parent than my wife.
I think men shoot themselves in the foot with this kind of thinking. I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife
A. Men are no longer given the opportunity to stay at home.

C. The author works at a TV station.
D. More and more men choose to stay at home to look after their children.
