Oh yeah, being a housewife is a tough job with no salary coming he he he he...It never ends, does it? You keep on doing everything over and over again: cooking, cleaning, mopping, washing the dishes, washing clothes, buying grocery, dusting, ironing, etc. etc. etc. Well, as long as the husband and the family appreciate what we do, then it's good. ;-D

Being a housewife is alot of work, but to make it even harder , throw some kids in the mix. I can clean one room, move on to the next and by the time the next one is clean my kids have totally distroyed the first room!!! I think that being a stay at home mom/housewife is very hard work. Not only getting the house clean, but doing the laundry, cooking dinner, helping with homework and getting all the house projects done and organized. I am tired just thinking about it.

sunshine, I know exactly what you are talking about!!! My kids are 18 and 16 now, but the memories are still close by!! lol I can remember those days that my hubby would come home, and I would want to just knock him out!! He could feel my frustration, so at least he would take over with the kids so I could go take a bubble bath or something.....Calgon, take me away!!!! Trust me, I am tired just thinking about it all too!! Take care!

I agree that being a full time house wife and mother of small children is hard work. At the same time I think many more tasks are done by stay at home moms that are skipped by moms who work outside the home. Actually this is good for the environment. I have seen many posts of stay at home moms who say their kids change their pyjamas every day even though they take a bath before going to bed, many fret over the fact that some people change their bed linen every two weeks instead of every week, many have commented that they change their towels every day and have huge washes every day. Some stay at home moms clean and vaccum their house every day. If you are out in the work force you simply do not have the time to attend to all those chores on a daily basis and lo and behold the family still thrives. Also if both parties work outside the home the men have a chance and have a duty to share the "housewife chores" which will give them a good understanding of the hard work that is involved to keep a place looking good.

I'm actually a housewife...for now. lol. We've moved to a new area, and I'm expecting. So, right now it is best for me to be at home. Sometime after I have my daughter, I will go back to work--part time only. I definetly am not going back to work right after I have her. I miss having my own income coming in, and I don't like depending on anyone for anything, so it's been really uncomfortable for me. But there definetly is a lot of things to do around here. I get tired very easily now, but I still do things. Just today, I've cleaned my counters, tables, toilet, and later on I'll wash the dishes and vaccuum.

I undrestand your point, sometimes it's really different if you have your own income and not always be dependent to your husband's money. If you have your own income you can do whatever you want on your money. In my case im a fulltime mom, stayed at home mom, looking after my 9 month old son, every month my husband give my allowance excluded the expenses for personal care and use and clothes or shoes. And as of now everythings is smooth in terms of money but i have no plan to stay at home forever when my baby is big enough then i will have my own career and i want to use my degree as a part of self fulfillment. Happy posting.

The people that say these things are those who are either jealous because they are unable to do it or they have never done it. Being a housewife is a never ending job. There is no time clock to punch, no lunch break, no sick days and no vacaion time. It is a 24/7 job and it takes a very special person that can handle the stress of it. Be proud of the profession you choose (and yes housewife is a profession) and do it the best you can. But don't criticize others for not choosing the same road you do.

I do really agree with you. Mom at home got lots of work to do. Unlike if you are a working mom, you just only working in one field. But when your mom at home you are the chef preparing foods for family, the cleaner, the washer, the guidance counsellor to your kids, the teacher to them, teaching thier lessons, the nanny who always looking after them, the accountant and treasurer, the budget manager,and etc and during the night you work for your husband lolz. So much work to do and it really so tiring. You wake up so early and sleep late at night.So being a mom at home is not easy and you never get paid for your service, all you can get is the happiness and love fromy our family and money can't pay that. Happy posting and proud to be fulltime mom.

I am no wife at all, but staying in our house..I am always used to cleaning the house, doing the laundry, cooking food, feeding the dog, cleaning around outside..(think i'm prepared for married life) joking aside!! Well, I do enjoy doing these things especially when you have finished a chore and you see the outcome of it, like cleaning the house and afterwards sitting while resting and having the place perfectly done..
