Working VS Stay at Home Mothers
Nowadays boys opt for working spouse, to earn more, to cope up with the raising cost of decent living.
But in those days , i mean in my father's period before 1940, working housewives were very rare so also small families.
I was the 7 th born to my parents, behind me there were another 5.
Even now when i think of it, we had no serious financial problem simply because, the things my parents wished were simple and manageable.
Same type of tailored Cloths for everyone for Deepavali, that is all.
We were all educated in very ordinary Schools, Colleges, and we were all settled comfortably
Coming to my period, conscious reduction of siblings was adopted by every couple after 1970 or so.
Most couple had only two siblings.
My wife did not go for work although she was a Graduate in Science , but she did more than that; If a woman does not go to work ,do not conclude she is any less ambitious. Remember, she is leaving a very important part of her life to take up another role that requires round the clock dedication.
She brought up our son and daughter to become an Engineer and a Doctor.
What more one can expect ? That how we are able to Visit UK/US many times which is only possible in Dreams.
The trend to marry working woman started sometime after 1970 -1975 as more girls out shined boys in education and other fields.
The trend got upward swing after more and more girls started to study in Collages/ took up professional courses;
When IT industry came, Girls got preference over boys and to some extend this trend contributed to many eligible bachelors left out without a partner.
Ultimately when these working girls get married they faced enormity of responsibilities in front of her apart from housework.
Either way working or stay at home mothers contribute running the home, financially or otherwise.
We Men, can appreciate the woman in our life for the contribution she makes towards home and make it a real Home!!
