House wives

Re: House wives

The way that I see it is that a woman rules the household. The poor husband is working his butt off for his wife and kids. He's slaving for them. Sure his wife may keep the house clean and cook a dinner for him once in a while. Men are simple, easy to please. They just want to be loved and appreciated. Whether a woman works outside the home or not is not a major issue. What keeps a marriage happy is when there is harmony between the husband and wife. They need to find a balance and lifestyle that works for them. But no nanny or daycare can provide the kind of love, early education, emotional support, self-esteem and guidance that a mother can provide. I believe strongly that children need the security of a mother's love so they can blossom into secure adults. But once kids are in school full time why shouldn't a wife pursue her own goals? Every human wants to keep striving to make themselves a better person. Why should a woman just remain in a shell...as though her husband pressed the pause button on her until he comes home?
