I have the opposite scenario. When I left my job to found my start-up, it forced my wife to go back to work and NOT be with the kids. I can tell you that, while I don't suck as a dad, my wife was infinitely better at being a nurturing parent than I was.

To me, the real question is -- are we sure that women in the workplace is progress or will we look back 50 or 100 years from now and laugh at how silly we were to try to ignore gender difference.
