"  Great news: According to a new survey by the  Pew Research Center, more working moms want to have fulltime careers than ever\u2014the percentage jumped up to 40 percent from just 21 percent in 2009. Bad news: Dudes don&amp;#039;t agree?!  The same study says 78 percent of fathers believe that they should only work part-time\u2014or not at all. Of course, this issue is unique to every family in terms of figuring out childcare and finances, but we were kinda shocked to read that most guys don&amp;#039;t support their wives being kick-ass career women and moms at the same time, if that&amp;#039;s what their partners want. And we know that getting to 50/50 in terms of housework, childcare, and career is a huge part of the equation.  According to research in Sheryl Sandberg&amp;#039;s new book, Lean In, women who work outside the home and share the breadwinning burden have happier marriages\u2014and when men share the household and childcare duties, marital conflict significantly decreases. So, having it all is indeed possible. You just have to have the right partner.  Want more from Natasha? Follow her on Twitter or find her on Facebook. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
