A house-husband is a man who stays at home and (doesn't) go to work, while his wife goes to work and earns money. Usually a man becomes a house-husband (in order to) look after children.
Sociologists have found the full-time househusband (emerges) in three main situations.
Firstly, if the wife is (ambitious), well-paid and has good job prospects, while her husband is paid poorly and has no job prospects, it makes economic sense for the female to become the main income (earner) for the household.
Secondly, if the wife is tired of household (chores) and eager to work outside the home, her husband may forfeit his job for her sake.
Thirdly, if the husband can do his work at home, he may take this option as it allows him more time to (take care of) the family.
