How do you feel about traditional housewives?

I support it, I think it's honorable and lovely.

My mother raised a large family and didn't pursue her own career. It wasn't easy, but she was careful with money and didn't spend it on fancy cars, big screen tv's, etc..etc.. But she never left us kids in other people's hands, she was there for us through thick and thin.

So do I and I can't say strongly enough that housewives were just as much the backbone of the family, as well as the husband was when I was growing up. I know that financial issues make it hard in this day and age for the mother to stay home but ideally that was the way it was meant to be. I firmly believe with all my heart that we lost a great deal when mothers started leaving children to go to work. We missed more than we will ever know. It is so important that a mother if she can these days, stay home and be a mother and homemaker. I think it's crucial. A mother should be home with her children, in my humble opinion. No one will ever realize how important that is. I wish we could get back to that and not letting the TV babysit our children, but be able to give our children ourselves and our time. I'm sure it breaks some mother's hearts that they can't do that and I do feel for them but I just feel mothers should be home and taking care of business there because there is a lot to take care of, and I don't think they get enough credit for what they do in the home. Thank you for bringing up this subject. It's not old-fashioned for a mother to stay home and raise her children. I think that's the way God meant it to be but society has changed so much and I feel sorry for those who can't do that.

I was a traditional housewife with a job. I worked nights at a homeless shelter so my job wouldn't interfere with raising my son. Then the ex became disabled, and all bets were off. In order to make up for his lost income I had to get a full time corporate job.

I feel traditional housewives are VERY lucky...privileged, even. There has to be enough income to enable them to stay home and be free to raise kids, cook, and clean.

They really do. I caught so much flack for just wanting to be the best wife and mother that I could be. Smh. House wives literally care for our future by raising their own children with their own beliefs. Those children are valuable to the world just by being. I'm glad that you have a safe place to express that!

When I was little, I always wanted to be a housewife. To me, that was what peace was.

Unfortunately, to be a housewife today in this age, the couple needs to be exceptionally financially secure, at least in the US. Capitalism has made the "traditional" family idea impossible.

Of course, having been married and having quite a few relationships where the man wanted to rely on me in all aspects, I don't think I can be a 'traditional housewife" anymore. Any trust that I will be looked after the way I need has been stripped away long ago and now I only trust myself to provide for myself.

We tried it 20 or so years and we were shelling out more than my wife was earning. So it was a no brainer and my wife was happy to. I don't think we could afford to in London nowadays. Any how my wife studied when the kids were in their teens and has a new career and returned to work in her 50s. She loves it.

My first wife was a stay at home. She was a fantastic mother. If you want success and all that comes with it, it’s difficult for one half to provide enough income to support ever growing demands.

I was a traditional housewife but it was his way to make sure I couldn’t leave so I don’t know if I could do that again… that being said I still homeschool do the traditional roles without the “man of the house” while still working several jobs.

I think if there was more of this, people would be alot happier. Everyone knowing the importance of their place in a household and the relationship will thrive. Thats my opinion

Your initial message is excellent, but don’t forget to take into consideration that mothers don’t all want to work outside the home, often it’s a necessity evil driven by present economics driven by world trends.

I don't think they're a bad thing I think they bring a lot of good attributes to the table but let's be honest in this day and age with the economy like it is it takes two incomes to make it for the average family unless the man has a job like he is a lawyer or a brain surgeon than it is not really a practical model and the traditional nuclear family is somewhat outdated

I think that, for women who want this lifestyle, it's great if the family can afford it. However, we've got to acknowledge that many women want careers in addition to a family, and the majority of modern US families need two incomes to sustain their lifestyles.

I love that you have passion for your career choice.

I have no issue at all with a traditional housewife or a househusband.

If it's financially feasible and works for them....bravo!

If that's what she and her partner wants, I see no problem with it. But it's not for everyone.

I think it is great when you get to have the life you want. I would have made a great house husband.

I manage all of this and a career. To each their own 🤷‍♀

If it's her choice and what she wants to do more power to her

Hey! I`m a great housewife..... ah... um... househusband.

I'm a housewife. 🙂

I love the way they taste

I agree they are hard to find

I think it's beautiful

i once saw a video on youtube where this girl was like "that is all i want to do but thanks to feminists i have to go to work" haha

They are great

Good wives are underrated .. as good in general these days 😐

I really like the idea. Sadly most families can't afford to have the wife stay home. ☹

If that's the way a person wants to live, that's up to her.

Nothing more important

Lv them

They sure did a lot in the past
