to the meat of your comment, i cannot say whether you are wrong or right, until i come across the situation. i can say it's normal for all parents to want to spend time with their children, just as it's normal to for all parents to want to make things as safe as possible for their children.
in my point of view, financial security is one of the major bullet points under 'make things as safe as possible'. it is therefore only logical that the person making the most money be the one to keep his/her job. it's normal/ traditional for the man to be the one making the most money. it simply happens to be reversed in my case. this doesn't make me cold - it does make me logic-oriented than emotion-oriented, though.
