House helps (maids) should be treated well....

I always had luck with good house help, back my home I have seen my mother how well she has always treated our maid, how considerate she has always been. She has always respected her and given her space, that's also the reason why she has always been supportive to my mother. It's been more than 14 Years that I have seen her working with us.
But on contrary, at my in-law's house I have seen how they mistreat their house help, it's been 8 months and 5th maid has be recruited. I think their is some problem at our end, not every maid can be wrong. They are too cranky and are always pointing out to them for one thing or the other.
I think they lack the sense of respect for them, they are paid fine but without appreciation nobody would work.
I am in a kind of dilemma, this time again the 5th one is about to get fired, I really want her to stay, what to do....???

It is time they are treated with kid gloves as it is their time now to boss around. (lol)
We have always had maids and have lovely memories of our association with them The present set up where a couple does our work is the same. We are happy with each other.

Well it’s better if they dont have house helps. In australia, they dont have such because they consider it as slavery. Well, i want ms. Judy evans correct me on this.
But in some part of the world, they hire such. For me, i will never hire one. Even if i were rich. They should be treated well. Someone who mistreats them tells something about his true color.

Personally, moving out is good. If I can turn back time I would have done just that.

I believe that the measure you use for someone is the measure you receive. Maids are humans and thus deserves to be respected. It's quite disheartening how people treats maids as trash, forgetting that Tomorrow things can turn around and he/ she will have to work under someone else.
God may in future bless this maid you are maltreating, then I wonder the heart with which you will use to ask for help or forgiveness from her. I believe in DOING TO OTHERS WHAT I WANT THEM TO DO TO ME. Thanks for bringing up this discussion.
