Working dads continue to explore different options to free up more time with their families, but fewer are willing to leave their jobs if their other half could comfortably carry the financial load for the entire family.
While nearly one-third (31 percent) of 797 U.S. men would give up the traditional role of breadwinner, that percentage has dropped from 37 percent in 2008 and 49 percent in 2005, according to CareerBuilder’s Working Dads 2009 survey. The survey was conducted in February and March 2009 with men who were employed full time and have children age 18 or younger living at home.
