Not going to throw arrows. Although I don’t have kids of my own, I can’t imagine being a domestic engineer and not having at least a part-time job doing something else to occupy myself, my brain, etc. I would not want to be solely dependent financially on someone. I have to say that being a domestic engineer and raising children is a full time job. Some men know this and wouldn’t do it.
I can understand when the child is still a baby, infant, mothers would want to stay home to care and nurture. But once the kids in preschool and socializing w/other kids and in schools learning, I’d want to get back to doing some kind of work. Household chores are not the most rewarding.
If a woman chooses to work full time, there’s dual income, then I hope a cleaning lady is in the mix at least once a week, or the guy is doing chores as well. Either that or the house you work so hard to get goes to pot. More work maintaining the house than women get credit for.
MPO, women are not “Wonder Woman” or Superwomen and to have a full time job and do all the household chores AND taking care of kids, etc. all by herself is a recipe for disaster. If you keep driving a car and don’t change the oil, rotate tires, etc, the car is not going to function properly.
If there’s substantial money and the wife doesn’t need to work and she has a maid and is bored, then I say time to do some volunteer work, get involved w/the community, go to the gym and stay in shape, take up tennis or biking or something that makes you feel a sense of self-worth if not a job.
I never understand when women are bored. Get a life. Get a hobby, something.
