Movies and books still portray full-time fathers as bumbling buffoons, but that's not the whole story

The Christian Science Monitor has a nice story about Stay-at-Home Dads (SAHD).

'Cause, you know, they're never wrong. Even now - technically, Penn was in violation, so the RIAA was just doing it's job. Yeah, that's the ticket....
