Careful what they ask for, I'm a housewife and not a day goes by that I am not insulted in some way for it.
It was my observation that when in Ukraine and Russia (and Moldova, illegally), that women even if they worked outside of the home, were housewives anyway.
I don't mean to sound sexist or anything, but especially in Ukraine, it appeared to me that women did 90% of all work, inside the home and in the working world.
That's ok, people will always have an opinion about the choices you make, especially if they differ from yours. If you want to stay home, stay home, if you want to work, work!
Polish girls are hot!!!
No insult here - I'm green with envy. I would love to be able to spend my days preparing my home for my family. I think if more of us did that, there wouldn't be so many problems today in society. Kuddo's for you!!!
I would love to be a housewife. Hell, I'd just settle for a date.
It is a shame that people would insult you for doing such important work. Taking care of kids/husbands (we need taking care of, believe me) is vital. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
2 women is a pretty small sample.
LOL!
I know the feeling.
I love it. They can say what they want.
If others insult you, it's likely because deep down they are envious of what you have. Like I've told my wife for the last 29 years, you have the most important job in the family, raising the children and keeping the home as a sanctuary of escape and solace from the world for the others. I've heard too many career women in my office talk for too many years to convince me otherwise. You're family is blessed to have a wife and mom at home regardless of what the world says. - OB1
"the kids were happier"
I know mine are too. Except they don't get by with much. :)
I have 4 teenage daughter's and if I was not at home they wouldn't be either. That would be a mess for sure.
I volunteer in 6 different places (something the libs say they stand for, but don't do )I get little repect for it. That's ok I don't do it for that reason.
But a warning to others who think they want to do it be careful because people like me get little respect.
I'd love it!
My mother always complained about being treated like a second-class person since she stayed at home (this was late 70's and 80's - NOT the time to be a stay at home mom).
The only bumper sticker she ever put on a car "Mothers are Working Women too!"
Oh I don't know. I'd settle for two pretty women.
