GENDER STRATIFICATION

Defeminization in Household Management

Defeminization in Household Management

Social roles in society are learned through socialization. Expected behavior of male and female are initially learned in the family.  Have women's roles in the home changed in terms of participation in the economic decision making for the home? Are the fathers in the home sharing in household chores and childcaring?

    Nowadays, we cannot ignore the fact that women can also be the breadwinner of the family because of evolution and influence of other culture. And because of poverty, women are forced to find job to sustain the needs of the family. But most of us still believe that women should stay at home and take care of the house and the children and men should be the breadwinner.

    Because of many factors, the responsibilities of the women and men today were already changed. Those factors can be poverty, time, resources and availability. The women can now works for a living at the same time taking household tasks. The father can now do some household tasks and even stays at home. Even the task could be done by both of them, we still have the notion of "this should be done by her" and "this could be done by him". But as to the different family, this notion could be change.

  7. These questions are very important regarding Defeminization of Labor and Household Management. It's better to be practical nowadays because financial situation is getting worse. It's better that mothers should also work not only fathers so that they could provide needs for their family, could have something enough for the future, and could have a good life.

    People of today can be already considered as out of their places. We can never deny the fact that women can do what men do, thus, they tend to be sometimes the provider of the needs of the family. Moreover, many of our women today can live, even without their husbands. They can make sure of the safety of their family as well as their own.

    Changes are dominant nowadays and we must accept the fact that the belief in the past can be outlasted nowadays. the reasons behind this are the factors that may affect our lifestyle. Poverty, competency in the society and family problems like separated parents may affect these changes. We can say now that women can be the breadwinner and men can be the house husband. But behind this real scenario in the society a lot still believes that Father must be the provider and that will remains the same for generation. And it is nice to be aware with these kind of real events around us.

    Being responsible parents doesn't necessarily mean that you have to attend to your responsibilities according to your gender or according to what is expected from them. As long as they can sustain the needs of their family, and as long as there's an agreement between the parents that that will be their set up, it doesn't matter whether the man stays at home to take care of the kids, and the woman goes out for work. The point here is, the practicality of the decision and the convenience that it may bring to the family.

    Defeminization of Labor and Household Management greatly contributes to gender equality which people need in this era. Since women before has been deprived of their rights as thinking beings as compared to men who have been made superior over women in olden times. This also contributes to the distribution of tasks so that the capabilities of women are not underestimated. Furthermore, men should share household tasks in order to feel what it's like being in a woman's position and to change his view about housewives.

  12. Before, people believed that woman should stay home to take care of the children and the house and many still believe in this tradition. However, in our present time and situation, if the father is the only one who is working then there wouldn't be enough profit for the family to enjoy the things that money can offer. Women today can do man's work if given the chance thus making them capable of being independent. Men could always do woman's work by being practical.

  13. Culturally, women are expected to stay and work at home, take care of the family and do housework, while men are expected to find work and financially support the family. This doesn't mean that women are not allowed to work, nowadays many men are just staying at their homes doing the household works while women are working. It's normal. It doesn't change anything. It's not really cultural but it's being practical. Changes do happen.

    In our society nowadays, women and men have equal rights. Unlike for the past that women should not work or earn money but rather stay home to do the household chores and to take care of her children and her family. Just like for my situation in our family, my mother is a teacher whereas my father is a farmer. They both earn for our everyday life needs. Though my mother is an employee, she is still doing her part, that is, doing the household chores and taking good care of us. I can say that even though our mother goes out for work and she is not with us for 24 hours, it still depends on how she manages her time for work and for her family. Still in our society, In some families, men do not help in doing the household chores at all. These can be change and should be changed.

    Before, mothers are expected and obliged only to take good care of their children and stay at home. Some always assume that the father must be the breadwinner of the family but through advancement of living and evolution of the world we are living in, the idea about the role of the mothers and fathers drastically change. Nowadays, some women are considered to be the breadwinner of the family and some men can be the househusband of the family. As long as both parents can sustain the needs of their family, it doesn't really matter who will work or stay at home to take good care of their children.

    In the olden times, women generally stays at home to take care of the children and do all the household chores while men look for a living. Today as technology are improving and our culture are being influenced by other countries, women prefers to find a job not only to help the husband in their living but to satisfy her worth or do what she wanted to do. She has to manage her time inorder not to disregard her responsibility to her family "Time Management". Husband and wife together they work a living for their family, in other situation husband stays at home and wife works like in the "House Husband Movie".

  17. About the topic:
    It is already acceptable in our modern society that women can work and be somewhat independent from her husband but the important thing is not just to socialize but to be associated with her partner and vice versa with men. There should be the presence of respect, understanding and coordination when it comes to household decision making.

    Defeminization of Labor and Household Management are very important and greatly contributes to the equal rights and power of both men and women nowadays.

    we should accept the fact that not only the men, like before, have the capability to work for the family. for instance,women can now be an architect or engineer and try to support her family.in case the husband died, who would support for the family? should the wife try to beg for alms? she should try to find a decent job to support her family. what's the education for if she would just become a house wife and just be contented with it? :)

    Nowadays in our society, woman are now accepted to do labor as men does. Just what like others say, "Kung kaya ni Mister, Kaya ni Misis". However, a mother is still expected to look out for the children, because its really difficult for a child to grow up without her mom rather than her father. For the household chores, women are more organized than man, and so it is more appropriate that the mother should stay more at home. Even if she has a job, she shouldnt forget that being a mother is a treasure than being an employee.

    the women before were deprived from learning but now they are capable of doing what men can do. as time pass by, many things have changed and one of these is the equality between men and women when it comes to choosing their own career.It is the responsibility of both men and women to take care of their family. both of them should take turns in taking care of their children, especially the younger ones, and both of them should have a decent job to sustain their financial needs.

    We all know that women before are just for housewives and men are going out to search for jobs to sustain their families needs. As the years past there are so many changes that happen like womens now are free from choosing want they want to be,like being a housewife or a professional that can search for jobs to help in providing what their family needs. Womens nowadays can also do jobs that men can do, to accept it or not nowadays some womens can do the jobs of men better than men and some men are better househusband than the women being housewives. Both should look and took care of their children,a child can grow more better with the assistance of both parents.

    As a woman, I highly favor on woman being employed and household chores are shared by both the husband and the wife. Though men are physically stronger than women, we can not deny the fact that in the line of intellect, they do not differ that much from each other. Women are entitled to take good care of the child since she carried the child within her for 9 months and that gives them a closer bond but it doesnt mean that men are excepted in taking care of the child. They both have equal duties and responsiilities towards the child. Working outside the home is a right of a woman and that right must be practice in every home as long as the woman is has the ability and is willing to take the responsibility.

  25. Beniking,Roel A. 11:30 to 12:30 TThS As we can observed today on our society,it is already undergoing modernization thus women and men have already the capability to do the same kind of work.Our old culture or traditions is already diminishing where in people have this thinking that women can only do work for women and men will do work for men.Sometimes we already see that women have better performance in doing such men job,which goes the same with the men.Therefore we can say that even women have lesser strength as compared to men but they still have the capabilities in doing the same kind of work except for certain jobs which only requires men or women.

    I don't agree with them. If a woman WANTS to stay home a cook, clean and raise kids that's okay, but a woman is not obligated to do so, just as a man could chose to stay home cook, clean, and raise the kids. A guy can pay for a girl on a date but not out of gender roles, just out of kindnes, just as any female could do in return.
    I feel like most modernized folk agree with this, maybe not though, I am a feminist so I could be way off the mark of the majority.

    That said, I intend to have several children and I like to cook and clean.

    A man feels a certain sense of pride when he can care for his girl and pay for her. Girls can feel free to do whatever they want but A MAN WANTS TO FEEL LIKE A MAN. This means doing the manly work, bringing home the dough, and paying for her.

    Based on what i answered, i had realized that men and women had their own responsibilities. Women can work household or work outside and have a job. Men can do the same way too. Men should have knowledge on how to work at home specially when the mother is gone they know what to do. Now men and women are treated equally, they can do both things. The questionnaire makes me feel so aware now about the society were in. Everyone can be better than the other.

    In the past, the expected role of the husband is to work for the family income to pay household bills and the mother is just to stay at home to care for the children and do the household chores.But, now,shared-parenting is usually done, wherein, both parent are working and just hire a baby sitter to care for the baby and maids for the household chores..For me, a mother #1 role is "TO GIVE AND NURTURE LIFE".

    Gender equality has been a struggle for many years. Women and some men who support gender equality have been fighting for the right to vote and own property such as land. Men and women should be treated equality although many believe that this is not so. People have been taught to value their place in society even when they are placed underneath someone else. Gender equality allows both men and women to do and have opportunities as each other. Men and women should have equal rights; times are changing and although most still have the idea that women are inferior to men it is not true. Women are capable of getting an education, good jobs, and working outside of the house. Just like men, women can accomplish these goals they can get a higher education if they are willing to work for.

    Social change and social influence are the greatest factors that contribute to the defemination of labor and household management. Due to rapid social changes that occurs within our society,rapid changes also happen in the context of our culture.Naturally, still in the beliefs of many people that men are the breadwinner of the family and the women as the caretaker of the home and the children.But as time passes by and with all the social influences of other culture we learn to live with all the possibilities in order to comply with all our responsibilities not only as a member of a family but with the concept of living independently as a man or women.We think that jobs appropriate for man are only for man ,but with the modern times woman can work with this kinds of job with their certain ability and strength not far from that of a man.In relation, man nowadays are not only working with these heavy works but also participates in household and childcare. Since, in my opinion man and women are equally obliged and responsible with labor and household management.

    Our social norms are changing because the times are. The requirements for surival and comfort when the former norms and tradition were made were different from the present, norms get obsolete like everything else in time... We have to change our ways in order to meet the demands for survival. The gradual change in the practices in our society is but a manifestation of man's ability to adapt to his changing environment. In relation to the topic, our present society demands more from it's units as economic competition becomes more crucial and the society in itself gets more sophisticated. No longer can the earnings of a lone parent,(the father traditionally since he is more capable in the former ways to find provisions) can sustain a family(in general).Which as a result requires the other parent to help, as it is in the present, and the fact that more and more mothers get jobs is a proof to this.

  36. it is expected in our culture that the wife should be left home to take charge for the household chores but at present both the husband and wife should be working in order for the family to survive :)) but on my opinion the wife should help the husband financially in other ways like putting up a business near there home so that she can also take care of the kids :>>>

    As a person that came from a family where the mother is the one being the breadwinner, I can say that it is not that good to see that our family is reversing the cultural concept that if you're a woman, you should be staying at home and if you're a man, you should be the one giving the financial support of the family. But, even if this is the case of my family, I am still happy about it. Because there's nothing wrong if the woman is the one giving the financial needs, as long as the man is trying his best to also find a job in order for him to help. And as long as they're working together on maintaining the peace at home, it's just fine whoever does the job of staying at home and providing the needs of the family. Though, it is still better if both of them have work and still have time for each other together with their children :)

    We can not neglect the fact that nowadays women are competitive and can now work and serve as the breadwinner of the family. In this generation many house husband have emerged in our society. So I think that it is OK that men can be left at home and women will provide for the financial support for the family.But it is better if the woman can also take care of her children even she works.
    Sustainability and stability of the family is a must, so if the man or husband is incapable to support his family, it is high time for the woman or wife to support her family. We should not stick to norm that women should be left home.
    At this note, I would also like to add that defeminization labor should be implemented because it will promote gender equality. There will be no longer first and second gender.Women capabilities and skills will not be overlooked upon by men anymore.

    For me, its better that women will have a work even though they already have a family. Being a housewife is sometimes being looked down by some people. Some will criticize you for being a housewife, that's why women today want to be a career woman. Some of the women that is working just want to show that what do men they also can do it. Me myself want to be a career woman because I want to achieve something in my life. But still I want to take care of my children. But whenever they reach the age of 7 I'll go back to work.
    Being part of the modern time, makes many women think that they should work for their family. They don't like to waste their time staying at home. Some will get a maid to take care of their children so that they can go to work.
    So I agree that women should also work like men. I also agree that men should also learn how to do household chores so that they can help in the chores and not only thinking of how to make money. But I don" agree that men will be a househusband, because the husband is still the head of the family.

    Before women were not able to voice their opinions or even work a job. They were confided to the home and child-bearing. But now we see the shift of women's roles in relation to work, home, sexuality, and child bearing. I think its about time to have a fair division of labor between men and women. Let us face the fact that some men nowadays were the ones looking after their children. Although men are putting in more hours on housework tasks, responsibility for noticing when tasks should be performed or setting standards for their performance are still most often assumed by wives.

    HOUSEWORK
    Just as work outside the home has traditionally been defined as part of the male world, so has housework - maintaining the home and caring for children- been defined as female world. I certainly do believe that in a typical Filipino household, men engage in a few activities such as home repairs; women typically do the daily and time consuming tasks of cooking, cleaning and do household chores. not surprisingly, then, that according to the statistics presented, our generation still views the traditional way that women stay at home. not also surprisingly also that many women in the labor force adopt the pattern of working "double Days" doing both paid work and unpaid house work.

    OCCUPATIONS
    Gender stratification is very evident in the fact that males tend to hold powerful occupational positions, while women work occupations that are relatively powerless. this hierarchy is often apparent in the job setting itself that is why i was surprised when statistics in for this survey show that only about 3% of mothers are top executives of a company.

    EDUCATION
    If i were to compare before and today's generation, i would say that before, women are traditionally been discouraged, if not formally excluded, from higher education in the belief that schooling is unnecessary for homemakers.
    Today's generation only shows that somehow women attained bachelor's degrees or post graduates.

    REFLECTION:
    i certainly do believe that this survey is an eye- opener for each one of us.maybe this concept is only learned in our classroom setting but it is also very important to understand this concept within out context. Moreover, this study conducted may be an instrument to empower women of the society.

    Wives were just full-time housewives then and weren't taught in school because men believed that ONLY the men have the right to learn and go find job/s.Women were also criticized and were excluded in societies and so the women don't have the courage to lift voices and be independent.
    Nowadays,there are articles,journals,etc. about gender equality.Yes,we can find lady professionals now along with male professionals but we can still see that there are girls,ladies,women that are being abused by men.Rape,prostitution,and even murder are proofs that there's still discrimination against women.
    But reality can't be changed automatically so let's just pray and hope that it'll change for the common good..

    For me, it would be better if a mother would take good care of her child during the childhood days because in my own observation some children with working mothers have the tendency to become rebellious or with unguided behaviours. So during these times children need their mother the most in order to give them proper guidance and also this is the most crucial moment that they need their mother the most. After this crucial days of childhood their mothers can already work as they were already trained with proper attitude and behaviour. But still with proper guidance.

    As we would define "defeminization" as a term in developmental biology, especially zoology, referring to an aspect of the process of sexual differentiation by which a potential female-specific structure, function, or behavior is prevented from developing by one of the processes of male development. Although the term might seem to imply "removal" of female characteristics, in nearly all biological contexts it refers to prevention of an aspect of female development from manifesting. Household management is considered as the productive role of women in addition to their reproductive role of child bearing and rearing. Most women play a vital role in home management activities. She is the one who cooks, take care of her children, do the laundry and so on and so fort but as the time goes by women have both role as a carrier women and as a mother at home with her family. Wives are unto caring for children, for sanitation and safety of the house while husbands were unto education and socialization of the children, conflict management, and social matters. He is the one who earns and serve as the post of a home. Both of them contribute for the well fare of the family and nobody should dictate whether husband/men and wife/women has the grater role but there are some circumstances that one has grater ability on some field than the other don't have. The main importance is their role which makes the family on going.

    In our society today, it is obvious that not only men work for a living, but also the women. Because of our Social Evolution or Changes in the Society, it is already accepted that also the women work to support the financial and economical needs of the family. But for me, if the Father of the Family can support his family with his income, then the mother should do household work instead and stay with their children at home. But if the income of the Father is not enough for the family, then the mother should also be obliged to support the family financially.

    due to rapid social changes and influences that occur in our society, their a lot of changes in our culture. as the women should stay at home and do the household chores and men as the breadwinner of the family. as time passes by, women can also work as the men do because of their strength and abilities as men. in our society nowadays, it is already accepted that women can work and support for their families.

    in Filipino culture it is expected that roles in household management is to be shared by both the father and mother with respect to child paying bills, accompanying children in school camps and looking after elderly parents. But as time passes, majority of the women are the one who works and mens do the household.

    As our belief, the mother stays at home to do the household chores and take care of their children while the father works to sustain the needs of his family because they were considered as the breadwinner. However nowadays, men are also considered house husbands, wherein they were the one who did the chores and taking care of their children and women can be the breadwinner. For me, men and women should work together to support their children especially now we are facing crisis. They should have time for household chores and for work, so that there would be no inequality between two sexes. Sometimes the reason why there were broken families is gender inequality between the mother and the father. It is accepted that women can also work and men will also do the household chores.

    Throughout history women struggled to prove to men their worth is far more than just doing the household chores and taking care of the children. A woman can do anything if the society permits and acknowledges her to. But the gradual acceptance of working women(sometimes women as breadwinners) is slowly changing the roles of men and women in the society. However, the cry of women for gender equality is still a big question mark. This is because many there are still many traditionalists who are close minded about the issue. Moreover, the fact that our society is still a patriarchal society, hinders the goal for gender equality.

    We all know that defeminization is referring to sexual differentiation that the male sexual characteristics are the leading superior in all biological aspect , thus, it also refer to The Labor and Household Management that, The common roles of the women are to take of her husband and her children and just staying at home, doing some household chores, nothing more nothing less but that was before. Nowadays, you can see a lot of women who are very successful to their professions and even earn a lot of medals from different competitions and awards coming from the different leaders and countries that the world had. Women can now also help their men providing in their both needs and as well as their children. Women are not just for at home anymore but as a precious gift that any man can be proud of. We never know, that the characteristics of a female might more be needing in years from now.

    For me, all I can say about the defeminization of Labor and Household Management is that, it is not just being feminine or to take on feminine characteristics, a laborer and a household manager but also being a good role model to the community specially to her children; not just women but also men.


    We must follow the traditional way of family living that the mothers should be at home to guide and protect their children and the fathers should go to work, but the other family didn't follow it and it depends to a family. But it is much better if it is required to each of the family. On the other hand, if the opportunity of work for women is big then the chances that the mother should also go to work, but she must be in consider of her responsibility as mother to her family, and as well as the father.

    I said that it is much better to be in traditional way because as we can see, now a days, children is not in a good manner, if the children is not take care by their parents and the children might go in wrong direction.

    And finally,before going into a family, parents should have a family planning; on that way, their mind is in right way of living.

    in my point of view, traditional is way better than the modern view. yes it is true that when both parents work because they can give the needs of their children, but not their time.

    the time that should be spent with their children is spent and use for their work and it greatly affects their children, some have attitude problems because of lack of attention, and recently the incident where a boy killed himself because of the problem in the family, it is why it is better that children open up when they have problems.

    while in the other hand, mother stays at home and make sure that the house is always in order, she sees to it that her family is always taken care of. and that effects to a happy and complete family.

    In our modern time, difference in genders does not define what each person could do. Men and women nowadays work hand in hand in order to build a more structural and balance society.

    Moreover, it is not uncommon for a family to have a working mother and a househusband although it has been a stereotype to us, especially Filipinos to have our mother taking care of the house responsibilities while our father works to support the everyday needs of the household.

    I Agree that women should not just be full time housewives. They are capable of working outside even if they have children. Mothers can actually work outside and take care of their children with the right effort to balance it. Men also should do household chores and they should know how to take care of their children. Time changes, same with the role of women. Today women can be tough, strong to do man's job and are much more seen outside the country working. A responsible mother and father is also needed to have good children.

    I also agree that women or mother should not be full time housewives. They also have the right to work outside the home with regard to what they want.Women can easily find jobs compared to men with the exception of those hard works that are for men. They should not be belittled because women are tough in facing problems.But it's also their choice if they want to work outside or not. As for the father they should also do household chores if they have nothing to do at home. Chores must be divided for the family members so that it will be easily done in a short period of time. Men should be taught to do laundry and do cooking so that they can take care of themselves when mothers are not around.

    Because we are in the modern age, it is expected that the women in our time is different from the women in the ancient times. Just like working mother, who raised their children alone even though the father is dead or abandon the responsibility he created. Nowadays, it is very common in our time about premarital sex, so as a result, there is a rapid increase in the population or cases of abortion. The probable reason why because they don't have enough knowledge of what they are doing or they are afraid of the responsibility of raising a child even though they are only college student. During this circumstances, the women has the most disadvantage, because the man can abandon the women and can lie that he is not the father of the baby or gone to a far away place to escape the responsibility. In case of the women, they have two option, its either abort the baby or raise the baby but she needs to stop in school. Is she go abortion, it is a lifetime sin according to the religious organization. But many women choose to raise the child even it means to give up her future. That's why there are many working mothers nowadays. There are also cases that women are the breadwinner in the family while the father is doing the household chores which is supposedly done by the mother. But despite of these changes, men and women have to work together for the future of their children by giving them education so that they will not end up like there mother which is the primary goal of every parent to the children.

    I definitely agree that woman should not be drown to just becoming a full time housewife. She should have her own choice, we should respect what woman can do in our society. Freedom is what we crave for so for that to happen we should respect one another and treat everyone equally, "same respect, half the effort". Man in the other hand should help the wife at home and they should work together as one for a better future to their young ones. that's how I see it...

  62. In the traditional aspect, we know that women are only those who are in the house,taking care for her family,to her babies, to her husband, and to their home. But as time passes, modernization affected this tradition, nowadays, women are now working for the family, for their food, and other expenses.

    And look in our situation now, it is so hard to live, prices are becoming higher, and the Father cannot do it alone to work for his family, so, women think that they can also help, to work for their family. So they should help each other, man and women will work outside their homes, and they should also help each other in the work inside their homes.

    Before, they say that men should work to feed the family, today however, we can see that women are not already incarcerated in the four corners of their home, yet they have shown to the world how effective they are in our society.

    In fact, women are now more productive than the men and they have shown how much they can help hand in hand with the men. For example, in education, both men and women are employed at school as teachers and non-teaching personnel, we can see that both genders have potentials in the field.

    And other things that i want to say as a female ,we need have own money or private money for ourselves. To be a independale female is good for us. why? if we can earn our own money, the man can not discriminate you even your parents-in-law. that is true becauese some of them thought you, daughter-in-law spend his son money. how sad it is !

    From my point of view,I strongly believe that women should not be the victim for all the household management. Why not man? Since early days, we, women are considered to stay at home and to take care of the children. In the 21st century, some women still agree this statement while some strongly disapproved of it,. We are thought to be having low capability than men in many tasks. Mostly, we could not get a good role in the society because we are women. Being a woman, I felt that we lose opportunities. Who makes rules, nobody else, we ourselves make the rules. Why don't we try to give the first position for women? Why do we put down ourselves thinking that we have less capability than men? There will never be special work that needs only the hand of women to lay on it so that the work will be accomplished. Why don't we try the hand of men to lay on it and to achieve it. There will be no difference, the task will be finished.

    As we all know,men are said to the provider whereas women are said to stay at home taking care of the kids and doing the household chores. Nowadays, it is the opposite: men are staying at home while women are working. As time goes by, society changes. Some people, somewhat, get tired of that belief. Hence, they tend to make changes. Though the role of men and women changes, it doesn't change the fact that at least one of them is providing for the family.

    However, it is better if both of them work together in bringing basic needs to the household. At least with the extra income, they are able to save for their children's education in the future or in case of emergencies. We will do what it takes to avoid suffering especially for the children so that they will not experience that situation.

    Parents are able to work if the children are old enough to take care of themselves or that there is someone they trust to take care of them.

    There should be an equality with men and women especially when it comes to work.

  69. For me, if a woman has the chance to get a job, why not? It's nice and happy to be a working mom because it's still different to buy what you want using your own money rather than being a parasite to your husband. It is also a common practice among Filipino families that both husband and wife should work for a living. Especially nowadays that life and education is so expensive so it is but practical that both husband and wife should help each other to sustain the everyday needs of their family.

    However, if your child is still young and you don't have anyone to trust to take good care of your child, and if the salary of your husband is good enough to sustain the needs of the family, it's better to be a full time housewife for the meantime.

    Traditionaly, mothers expected priority role and obligation is to look after their children and to do the household chores while fathers work for the needs of their family. But nowadays, mothers also work to support their family financially if the father is incapable of fulfilling the needs of their children and it is just normally accepted. But there are times that parents lack of time in taking care of their children personally. Most children are left with their maids at home. This is one of the main reasons why children grow up with bad attitudes. So for me, mother must stay at home to look over their children or else parents must make sure that they have time for their children.

  71. Today is an era where expenditures are so high that it is almost impossible to run the family smoothly. So both need to work. Also to provide kids better facilities and a good lifestyle, its essential for moms to work.
    It's absolutely fine if mothers work and can cope up with the household and the children. But if it is difficult for her to cope up its better to work part time. So that even the children can get the required quality time from their mother.
    Every woman needs to remain employable, for her own future and for the sake of the family she might have to support.:-)

    Society changes hence we need to find ways for adjustments. Natural way of living for a mother is to stay with the children. The nature has created mother to breast feed and to look after her child. But not so much any more. Ever since we're young, both of my parents are working. Despite of that, my mother still manage to take good care of us. I don't agree that mothers should stay at home to look over their children because as we grow old we must learn to be independent. And nowadays where expenditures are getting expensive, it would be better if both of them are working together in order to cover up/share expenses for our basic needs and education. Family income is not reduced or in jeopardy. Besides we should not belittle the capability of women because for me they are better in budgeting money, making decisions, more patience and natural networkers.

    In my opinion, it would be too shallow to say that women work just for the sake of economic purposes. Why can't we just say that women work because they enjoy doing those stuffs?
