But the women do not make the "extra" money and career advancement (which equals more money in the long and short run) because they don't feel like working. Again, this is not equal - the men do not take a turn carrying the baby around. There are fathers that choose to stay home instead of the mothers, to care for children. It would be nice if the men had to take the baby half the time that the child must be nursed - because that is what baby bottles and breast-milk pumps are used for. Again - it seems a bit unequal that the females have to take the time the first two years to raise the child, while the men do not. I would have thought, after the requests from all the other VV games they would have thought to have the child care duties split between both parents, that they would have made that update in this game. Since there is only one family, and only one set of parents in each game slot to keep track of, I would have thought it would be easier to code this is. Just something that says, when the child is 1 it goes from the mother charrying it around to having the father carry it around would be nice.

I would think that men might be upset that they are being left out of the baby's first 2 years of life. Certainly they can change diapers, wash the baby, feed the baby and carry it around as well as a woman can.



How do you react to seeing a man carrying a baby around? I would say it is a good role model for children to see the men taking an active interest in the children when they are young.
