How very true.  It is a frightening thought especially when you find out you

have a chronic disease that could disable you.  I live with that trapped feeling

everyday.   I know exactly what you mean.  And yes, alot of men are that

position just by the traditional role of the man of the house.

Think about it though Debra, you and I are both the sole support for

our family, we are basically doing the " males " job of the family and

carrying our small corner of the world entirely on our shoulders.

Having to be the sole support of me and my kids for the past 10

years has definatley made me more understanding of men who support

their family. When I was married and we both worked I never

experienced a feeling of being trapped in a job or the fear of what

would happen if something happened to me and I couldn't work or I

lost my job for an extended period of time. Being a single parent, I

had been able to get a glimpse of what most men probably have to

deal with a lot more and the different pressures it puts on you.
