Housewives tale

I read in newspaper today that some children felt ashamed that they have a housewife mother as compared to their peers, whose mother is a profesional working mom. Actually, sometimes I find that being a housewife is not an easy thing also. Unless you have a maid that helps with house chores etc, else you will be working the whole day also. Imagine waking up early in the morning, preparing breakfast, going to the market, washing clothes, preparing lunch, cleaning the house, preparing dinner etc. It is not an easy task at all. Sometimes if you ask the housewife, the time they get to really spend on watching the television, may be less or equal to those working moms. But just because housewives didn't hold a business card like some working moms do, it doesn't mean that their role is much smaller or simpler.

With the advancement of technology, some housewives have already become a working mom, but instead of spending their time in office, they could just earn money in the comfort of their own home. That is what we call working at home. With internet connection and a computer, they could even be earning as much money as an average working mom does. There is so many ways to earn money online now. Look at the advertisement around us!! So nowadays, don't even think that housewives are the typical woman who only goes to the market, meeting the neighbours, talking about the previous day movie or gossiping about whose daughter or son got married etc. They could be the multitasking woman who not only keep the house in tip top condition but manage to earn a living by getting their fingers busy on the keyboard.

So, the next time a child is being asked about his/her mother's occupation, he/she can proudly said, "My mom is a housewife who blog profesionally"..beh tahan leh.....ha ha ha...........
