Re: A question for Guppans
How come nobody wants to be a housewife, or we haven't had the politically correct answer that you would take into account my husbands preference although you may want to work?
Re: A question for Guppans
Well i got pregnant as soon as i got hitched so i left secondary teaching and neva went back to it. I wanted to stay at home with my little one and hubs was more than happy with me doing that. Ive enjoyed being a housewife. Howeva it does get boring just being a housewife and hubs knew i neva wanted to go back to secondary school teaching so he told me to do whateva made me happy. I love sport and fitness and spent most of my time at the gym so he suggested that i become a fitness instructor. So i left my graduate job of teaching and now teach at gyms and health clubs all over the place instead. I love it cos i can fit it in around my daughter when she goes to nursery but still do stuff at home.
Re: A question for Guppans
arshad cause times have changed.....so many guppans are in uni etc. They arent going to uni to become a housewife... which is precisely why you arent getting the answer you're looking for.
I certainly dont want to be a "housewife".....however....being a "stay at home mom" is an entirely diffferent story.

Whats the difference with being a housewife and a stay at home mum? I mean if you don't have children then its fine to work, but if you have children isn't spending time with them and making sure that they have a good upbringing also important?
Re: A question for Guppans
Arshad5: For both me and my hub spending time and looking after our daughter was the most important thing which is why i stopped working but now shes starting nursery i dont just want to spend the day cleaning etc whilst shes at pre school so it suits me more fitting in fitness whilst shes at nursery but at the same time i can also do stuff at home. Its abt choices and cirumstances. Im lucky in the sense that i dont really need to work but a lot of ppl arnt in that position.
Re: A question for Guppans
I understand your position. You made the correct choices in my opinion. Once your daughter has started nursery it is silly just to sit at home and get bored. I have issues with women that just say that they want to work full stop. I think looking after children is also an important role, but I get the feeling that some people look down on that as being less important than working, I don't feel it is. Once your children have started school then it maybe reasonable to start work again.
Re: A question for Guppans
Oh yeh for sure. Personally i agree with u Arshad but also there r ppl out there who arnt in that position where they can choose. Some ppl dont have that much money coming in so as a result both parents have to work. But i neva was one of those typical "ladies who lunch" type. Just isnt my thing and neva has been. Ive had ppl havin a go at me for even doing my fitness thing sayin oh u dont even need to work y the hell r u doing that-but its something that makes ME happy but when i have another baby i will give up work again at least until they start pre school.:D
Re: A question for Guppans
being a housewife means staying at home to tend to your husband and the home....you dont have to have children to be a housewife. Being a stay at home mom means you are at home to tend to your kids (family), and the home.
raising my children and making sure they have a good upbringing is very important to me... which is why i want to be at home with them while they are young. when they become of school age....id like to go back to work or even better.....work from home. But keep in mind this is a personal opinion....not everyone thinks that a mom has to stay at home to raise the kids properly.
Re: A question for Guppans
Angel Eyes ur right. Ive got friends who had post natal depression and it was actually healthier for them to go back to work and put their child in childcare and they actually hav a better relationship with their child as a result rather than them staying at home and resenting their child. Its something asian ppl dont understand and just think mums r making it up to get attention. Ppl always forget motherhood even tho its an amazing experience, it doesnt suit every1.:halo:
