>>I feel it is better for parents to be equals, however that cannot always be practical. One wants to buy a new car, the other doesn't. Who decides? Logic does not always play an equal role in both parents. If partner 1 likes the old car for sentimental reasons and partner 2 wants a new car for safety and they can afford it, the logical should outweigh the sentimental.

>>If partner 1 wants the new car, and partner 2 feels it is too expensive, logic again should prevail. In all cases do the right thing. For who? For the whole family!!! Regardless of genders.

>Precisely. IMO, a family should be a democracy. That's why I usually say "no" when someone calls and wants to speak to "the man of the house". I'm no ruler here, nobody's a ruler - we're a democracy, and anyone who implies other layouts may encounter some rough language from us :).
I didn't say democracy. There's little logic in that ;) We need a new term for rule of logic.

>>However I feel a child of male and female parents will be better prepared for interractions with both genders.

>That's for sure. There's just so much we don't know about the other gender. But then, there's so much most people don't know about pretty much anything... :)
