Mike McGrady is the author of "The Kitchen Sink Papers: My Life as a Househusband." This interview with McGrady and his wife Corinne reveals the changes in their lives brought about by his fortieth birthday decision to exchange places with his wife for one year. She went out in the world to be the family breadwinner while he stayed home to take care of the house and children. They share their revelations and experiences, explaining why each originally felt threatened by the role reversal, and how the change brought permanent benefits to the entire family.
