Is there a problem with wanting to be a house wife.?

Tara662

Not a problem.
If it's what you want to do and you and your husband can afford not having you work, I think it's fine.
Being a housewife and keeping up with the house and any children is a lot of work. I was a housewife for thirteen years until I went back to work outside the home in September.
My mother was also a housewife for eleven years.

If you have the financial resources to do that, good for you. Just know that parenting is the hardest job in the world. The hours are 24/7 and even when they're adults you still worry about them. But the up side is that there is no purer love in the world. Good luck.

I think being a housewife is fulfilling for many women. But it's important for everyone to get an education, just in case something happens to your husband and you're expected to provide for your family.

No, it is an honarable job if you do it well.

Nope nothing wrong with that : ) Sounds perfectly normal :)

For now, work on a way to have a business at home to support yourself, that way once you get a guy, you can stay home and work and keep your house and raise your kids at home. Just remember if you adopt, make them feel part of you-wanted. Just because a kids adopted, he is still as much yours as if you had given birth to him yourself.

There's nothing wrong with it.....but you're young.

Graduate high school, then get yourself to college and get a degree. (heck, get one in home ec if you want to) THEN decide what you want to do.

there are many great kids out there who need parents to love them. I commend you for this.

Absolutely nothing wrong with it! My husband is going to graduate with his bachelors in accounting next month, we are TTC, and he's hoping to find a job that will allow me to stay home with our long-awaited baby! As of now, I work part time and do the cooking and cleaning as well. There is nothing that makes me feel better about myself that preparing a good meal for him! Some of us are just born to do this! And others are born to be working wives/mothers! and more power to them for it!

I knew at a young age that I wanted to be a housewife/sahm and now I am one. I've been one for just over 5 years. There have been other careers that I've been interested in, but that was always my ultimate goal. I'm about to start going to college for a teaching degree, so even though you are a housewife, you can still pursue other goals as well. I'll have to go to college for about 9 hours a week, so I still consider myself a sahm.

Nope. But that doesn't mean you get to skip going to college or trade school of some kind, so that if needed you can work to help support your family. Many couples don't have the financial resources to make it on one income, and not many men who have high income jobs want to marry women who don't have a college degree nor experience in the real working world. Good luck.

Good thinking and it`s good you think about what you`d like to be, but before you make up your mind on that, explore your options. You`re still too young to make that kind of decisions and many things will happen before you even get there. Try traveling, try opening your mind and knowledge, study a lot, get a career and work to gain experience. After all these, you can decide if you really want to be a house wife, or you have it for something else!

no im sixteen i agree. i realy want to do that too!

You should get a job in a nursing home. Find out if you REALLY can handle taking care of people before you think about taking on a baby.

Everyone have their own way of living. For you, i guess you should explore more to the outside world than just to be a housewife. You will live to regret after becoming just a housewife.

I find that most girls who think this way are very over weight. Not pointing the finger here! It just happens that this subject has come up a few times this week by several different girls. The ones for it are thunderously over weight, the ones against it are thin, trim, and athletic. A guy who hears this from an over weight girl automatically thinks "Lazy", the ones who hear it from the thin, trim types think, OOOOOh Momma yes!
