It all starts with an imaginary situation where the husband (M) meets with a psychologist (P).
P: What do you do for a living, Mister Rogers?
M: — I work as an accountant in a bank.
P: - And your wife?
M: - It doesn’t work. She is a housewife.
P: - Who prepares breakfast for your family?
M: - My wife, because she doesn’t work.
P: What time does she wake up?
M: — She gets up early because she needs to organize everything: collect and dress the children, make sure they eat, brush their teeth and take everything they need with them. She wakes up with the baby, changes his diapers and changes his clothes. She breastfeeds and prepares the brakes for everyone.
P: How do your children get to school?
M: — My wife takes them because she doesn’t work.
P: What does she do then?
M: — Usually she decides what she can do while she’s gone to the center, so as not to have to take off the car seat once again with her youngest. She can pay bills or go to the store. Sometimes she forgets something and she has to leave the house again with the child. When she returns home, she feeds the baby, changes his diapers and gets him ready for bed, cleans the kitchen, does laundry and cleans the house. Well, it doesn't work.
P: - What do you do in the evening when you come home from work?
M: — I’m resting, of course. I'm tired after a whole day of working at the bank.
P: - What does your wife do in the evening?
M: - She prepares dinner, feeds the children and me, washes the dishes, cleans the kitchen again, makes sure the dog is walked. Helps the children with their homework, and then gets them ready for bed - gives them warm milk, makes sure they put on their pajamas and brush their teeth. Then she gets up during the night to breastfeed her youngest and, if necessary, change his diapers. She doesn't have to get up for work in the morning.
- This is the everyday life of most women around the world, which begins early in the morning and continues until the night... And this is called “doesn’t work”?!
Housewives do not have diplomas, but they have a key role in the life of the family.
Appreciate your wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, daughter... Because their sacrifice is priceless.
Someone asked her...
“Are you working or just a housewife?”
She answered:
“I work as a wife 24 hours a day, I am a mother, a woman, a daughter, an alarm clock, a cook, a servant, a nanny, a handyman, a security guard, an adviser, and I have no vacation or sick leave, I work day and night, and do not receive a salary for it. . And still I often hear the phrase: “But what do you do all day?”
Dedicated to all women who gave their lives for the good of their family. A woman is like salt. No one remembers her presence, but her absence takes the flavor out of everything.
