Segment 1:

Recent U.S. Census data show that about 150,000 men have traded in their breadwinning role to become the primary caregiver of their children. That?s more than double the number of a decade ago and it?s not just a byproduct of the recession. According to a study by Boston College, more men today are choosing to stay at home with their children. On Wednesday, we?ll talk about the rise of stay-at-home dads and how shared parenting is changing family dynamics.

Guests:

• Claudia Geist, assistant professor of sociology, University of Utah
• Ronda Devereaux & Robert Wiltsie, parents of three girls
