Kimoni: Trying to make her feel bad is stupidi*ty, it's not in their place to decide. Of course during my service year I had fun slaying a lot of Mrs Jobberwomen that tries to talk me down here. Once one is satisfied with what she is doing, that's all that matters. My post is just because OP isn't happy with it, other wise as long as the person isn't broke and needy, why criticise so blatantly? 1 Like |

byvan03: Well you will be surprised to find that some do get jobs alright. I read job section on BellaNaija, many people talk about their experiences . What i advice many ladies who ask me for advices is to try do something by the side. Open university, online short courses,exams many things to enrich your cv. You don't have to go for a paying job, you can be your own boss too. We have a lot of lawyers, bankers turn business tycoon. |

Mindfulness: You are probably right because I just didn't understand the obsession about a decision concerning my life and that of my family. |

Re: Husband doesn't want wife to work by EfemenaXY: 5:34am On May 25, 2016 |
edwife: Eddy. No one can make you feel "something is wrong with you" unless you let them. For you to have even felt that way means you probably at some point had self-doubts about your decision to be a stay at home mum during that period. I keep telling you, you worry toooooooo much about what people think. You need to firm up girl! ![]() Mindfulness: Valid point. Or maybe they just didn't get it. It works differently over here. At least there's a support structure for stay at home mums over here. Some do it out of necessity. Why rush back to work if you're only going to end up spending all that money on child care? The younger the child, the more expensive the child care. Fancy spending nearly £300 per week on one child. Then how much more will be spent if the couple have 2, 3, or more kids? Over £1,000 per week. To prove what na? Not forgetting women are entitled to a full one year's maternity leave of which depending on your employer, you get paid 90 - 100% of your normal salary for the first six months, a reduced amount for the next 3 months, then nothing for the last 3 months - but you're still on the company's books as an employee. I also totally get Byvan03's angle. Naija is tough. Employers aren't that understanding. Access to cheaper child care options are easier but at the same time, if you don't have an understanding partner and are unlucky to have one who thinks being a stay at home mum = common housewife, then yes, such women are forced to get up and get moving. There's nothing more degrading for a woman to go cap in hand begging her "husband" to give her pocket money to buy herself sanitary towels. Or having to watch the man reluctantly count out the pennies / kobo while she meekly (and patiently waits). Anyway, the title of this thread is vexing. 1 Like |

EfemenaXY: @Bold: Very beautiful. The concept of stay @ home mom in Nigeria and Abroad is two different things. Trust me, most Naija peeps against SHMs don't get it. Lagos State was trying to push the six months mat leave, I don't know if they have started implementing it. How are you and family? |

Stay at home moms make better Soup... ![]() ![]() ![]() ND the fastest way to a man's heart is his stomach... So stop complaining... Abi u don't want ur husband to be healthy ![]() ![]() Seriously though, except u still have little kids to rear, there's no reason why you should just sit at home... I don't understand the sense in marrying an educated woman if all she's gonna do is mop the floor all day and make egusi soup.... And get fat ![]() ![]() Talk to your husband, his intentions may be good but the result no make sense.... There's a lot of brain-drain when educated women sit at home and gossip about those in their workplaces.. Your contributions are less than 10% of Nigeria's gross domestic product and the country is about to enter into a recession.... |
