> it will show how much an economy can grow when women are allowed to work to their full potential

Why bring gender into it? There are plenty of families who choose to have stay at home Dads while the mother goes back to work full time. We are not in the 1950s any more.

I would suspect the numbers show we're closer to the 1950's than you think. But I'm happy to be proven wrong.

		Even if it is only 5% stay at home fathers, that is still 5% that is ignored. Staying at home as a parent isn't the right choice for everyone, but when society assumes that it is only mothers that is a disservice to the fathers who want to (and in some cases the couples who want a parent staying at home but it never occurs to them that it could be dad)

I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. I'm hopeful that the parent comment simply didn't think about Dads because it's not in their "worldview", and perhaps also not in many others'. Nonetheless, I think your point is completely valid.
