would u think its stupid for a girl to want to be a house wife in stead of a working women?

Answer 1

no, its not stupid. Its good to be independant though. I would love to be a housewife, but i know thatt with the divorce rates if he left me i would be helpless. You should get a career before you have kids, so you have something to fall back on for you sake. and stay home with the kids, maybe mary kay or something like that. Dont be fully dependant on yuor husband/boyfriend.

Answer 2

"House wife" - do you mean married to a house? All of us in homes have responsibilities to clean and upkeep the house.

Do you mean being married with no kids and your husband works and supports you? Do you mean managing the household help?

Do you mean a stay at home Mom?

I guess it doesn't matter. What the others have said is correct. Your opinion, decision is what counts.

But maybe there's something more behind your question? Like not finding or having a clue about what your "passion" might be, like in terms of a job and working? Because if it's something you love, it won't feel like work, except the getting along with others in the work place.

How old is this "girl"? Consider all options and decide what is best for you, but don't let fears get in your way of your gut level decision.

Answer 3

Nothing at all! The thing is, 'tho, it's a very good idea to have a skill to fall back on in case of something happening like your husband dying or becoming disabled. Having a way to support yourself is a kind of 'insurance' policy to protect you in case life throws difficulties your way. Not only that, but depending on your personality, some women find that after being a housewife for awhile they want to have "more." They want to know what it's like to go out into the world, earn their own money, experience a working environment. It can give you a real sense of accomplishment that's all your own!

Being a housewife can be creative if you make it so and don't get caught up in the whole soap-opera thing. If you enjoy decorating, cooking, crafts, gardening, it is a very pleasant way to spend your days, particularly once you have a baby and want to stay home with your child.

It's a personal decision, but after being a housewife for many years I just felt the need to know what having a decent job felt like and experiencing the satisfaction of my very own paycheck!

I think if you're lucky that you can experience both staying at home and working during your lifetime.

Answer 4

No & ignore rude comments.
Some women are made to work 9-5 shifts.
Some women are made to be stay at home moms.
It is the job that suits you the best. Just because you're a house-wife doesn't mean you'll be on welfare. In fact, house wifes have it better because they have more time to spend with their kids, clean, and keep up around the house as well as getting involved in book clubs and other fun activities.

Answer 5

Stupid No, its a darned shame more women can't afford that luxury today. Our children would be so much better off if they had a stay at home mother. The trouble is, its not always an option, and the other issue, is why is it what she wants? To be a good housewife, cleaning and cooking and tending the children, or sit in front of tv, or computer, shopping for nothing? etc.

Answer 6

It all depends on your man for one. If he had a good job and would rather you be at home, then it's OK. I you want spending money that maybe he can't give you; I would suggest maybe a part-time job.
Whether you work or not you will still be the one doing household duties.
I would say talk to your man and see what he thinks about it and if you have children (young) and they need you there, then talk to him about this too. If you and him can afford it then I think it's o.k.
I've just recently had a decision sort-a like this one to make and I did what was best for me and my situation.
Just talk to your husband though before really making a decision.
Good Luck in whatever you decide!

Answer 7

NO it is not stupid, it is admirable.

What job could be more important than nurturing the foundation of human society - the family.
It is easy to make a strong argument that the divorce rate, maladjusted children, and many other problems in society are a direct result of the breakdown of the home.

It is not easy to be a good "housewife" which you might choose to call "homemaker." The stereotype of the soapopera -watching, bonbon-eating frump is not what most housewives are.

Answer 8

No. Some people want to be an ordinary housewife instead of going to work. That's how it was in the olden days. Women was expected to stay at home and watch the kids, cook, clean, etc. But now, women are more independent of their husbands and want to work and earn their own money. However, there's nothing wrong with you wanting to be a stay at home mom.

Answer 9

Heck no. What's wrong with wanting to spend as much time with your family as possible? If I find a husband with a good job I would be a house wife. But I'm still getting an education just in case.

Answer 10

I think you should be whatever you want to be. If that is what you want, then go for it. I think your husband and kids would love you more for it if you can afford it.
Think back to stories of your parents or grandparents, and how they felt about that.. that was when America was good and so many less problems than there are today.
People forget the morals and values today. I am so proud of your question and I pray that you can do what you want. I think you are super special for even thinking about doing it.. I wish I could. I am the president of a company and all I wish for is to stay home and take care of my family.. Good luck to you ... and God bless you...
