For an average middle class Indian family, its always better to have a working partner. But for this, the husband also have to co operate by sharing some responsibilities. A working woman also can be a good housewife if she can plan her working nature. It also saves a lot of unwanted thoughts and reduces direct confrontations with Mother-in-laws.
For upper class/business class family, a total housewife is ok as she will be like the Quen Bee in a hive and the main job only is to procreate and provide enjoyment to both her children and husband!!!

The tide is beginning to turn in the world social order. Traditional family roles are changing as democratic notions creep into the social system. Earlier, it was assumed to be written in stone that the man was the provider in the family and the woman the homemaker. In India, while a majority of the women may still be fighting against the old order, some have definitely seen the light at the end of the tunnel. And it is not just because women are beginning to realize that there is a world outside their kitchen windows. Women are also turning out in large numbers in the work force due to economic necessity.
Mothers who have a choice whether to work or not to work have to consider many things before they take the decision. First of all, they need to be clear about their priorities. Does the baby and family come first or is a career and financial security of greater importance? They also have to decide whether they would be happy having servants or other family members look after their children. They need to realize that by taking the decision to work, they will probably miss out on all the major milestones of their babies' lives. Mothers need to remember that a job can be very demanding not only in terms of time, but also energy. Women spread themselves really thin trying to juggle work life and home life. They will have to consider the stress factor of the job because it is not easy to cope with the pressures of a high-stress job and the demands of a baby. Women should also discuss their decision to work or not with their spouses because they will need their support. It may help to find a job that has flexi-hours. It will make it easier for mothers to be able to stay home on days when there is no other caretaker for the baby or to leave early if there is an emergency.

Depends upon what your situation is. Are you able to live comfortably on one income? if yes then housewife mother is good. If you cant live comfortably on one income then working mother is the way it has to be. When I was growing up my mother worked (and my father of course) and my siblings and I took care of ourselves after school. My mother did a wonderful job of raising 3 kids and working a full time job.

Nowdays working mother because you need income of both spouse to run the show properly. though it is very taxing for the lady as she has to manage at two fronts. Very few guys help there wife with house hold chores when both are working. Ideally speaking house wife as she can give undivided attention to the house. I know that I will get lot of screams of MCP on house wife comment from working mother, but believe me house wife is a lady who really keeps the family tied together otherwise it is always both the husband and wife are busy beating the deadline

I prefer working mothers because housewife mother is a mother herself.

Depends on yourself and situation...I dont have kids but i plan to be a housewife mum, unless there is a need for me to work to help my husband or our household. I would love to look after my children n make sure my husband has a nice clean household and freshly cooked meal to come home to...and I think its important that one partner stays with the kids in their early years...doesn't neccesarily mean you wont have any interaction with other adults! My mother did both, and when she was working it was terrible for us and herself, she had to do double the amount of work since she still managed all the household things!

There are advantages and disadvantages to both.
I stayed home with my first child until he was about 3. We had moved away from family and I didn't want to put him in daycare. So, my spouse worked and I stayed home. That was very trying on me b/c I felt that I started losing a sense of who I was. I had no adult interaction each day, no where to "go" to get out of the house by myself and I really had nothing to look forward to. I enjoyed every minute of staying home with my son and watching him grow, but byt the time he was 2 or so and we started meeting other couples with young kids on the military base, he wasn't very social. He had no idea what sharing was or even how to communicate his needs as well as some of the working mother's kids. I don't believe I did anything wrong as a mom. I read and sang to him, took him to the park, and we played together all of the time. I finally put him in daycare at age 3 so he could get use to being around other kids.
Now, with my daughter, she has been in daycare and I have worked and attended school full time since she was 6 wks old. At 12 weeks I put her in daycare and she is blossoming like a sprout. She could count to 10 by the time she was 15 months old and she pretty much has her ABC's down by the time she was 18 months. She is now around 2 and 1/2 and is very intellectual, smart, good with grammer, social and has manners. She is 2 and also has tantrums, but for the most part she is pretty advanced for her age. Even her daycare center says so. Anyhow, although I missed staying at home with her and I felt that she grew up too fast and I may or may not have been there for all of it, I think it was best for both of us. I got to work and keep myself busy and feel adequate in the world. I also was able to keep in contact with adults and made some new friends. I cherish the moments with my daughter now and spend as much time as I can with her, playing, singing, going to the park on the weekends. I know she is in good hands during the day and we maximize our time together outside of 9-5.
Good luck! Either way has it's rewards and disadvantage.

I personally feel that housewife mothers can dedicate a LOT more time to their kids. For them, their kids are not a ADDITIONAL responsibility - it is the ONLY responsibility!!!
