Housewives Vs Career Women by Nobody: 4:56pm On Jul 16, 2017
There is always an ongoing argument in our societies to determine who is the better wife between full house wives and career women

The first school of thought which supports the house wife believes that she will have enough time for the kids and the husband
Hence, the children will learn good morals and the husband will be happy

The second school of thought supports the carrer woman because they believe she will support the husband financially and be a good role model to the kids
Thus, a career woman can offer a more stable home and a good example for the children on good work etiquette

So which one of the school of thought do you support nairalanders?

Re: Housewives Vs Career Women by Nobody: 6:05pm On Jul 16, 2017
I have hilighted the advantages for both full housewives and career women, but let me also highlight the disadvantages

1) Now a housewife will have to depend solely on the husband for all her monetary needs, this maybe too much trouble for a man who is not that rich

2)A house wife may have to to agree with everything her husband wants

3)A house wife may start to loose shape because of lack of proper excersise


1)Now a career woman may have little to no time to take care of the children and her husband

2)She may not be willing to agree to the will of her husband most times, hence arguments may always arise with the husband all the time

3)Most career women are not afraid to get divorce because they believe that they can survive on their own

but how will you manage to have time for your kids
Re: Housewives Vs Career Women by Originalsly: 6:50pm On Jul 16, 2017
A wife is supposed to be the glue of the family. A career wife would not have that time to bond the family as a housewife since she would be too busy pursuing her career during the day... and too tired at nights to attend to the eldest child...the husband... and the much younger children. How can such a wife bend the tree when it is young when she is hardly there to do so? Not saying it is bad to have a career.... but it should not take away from the time needed to be a guide and role model to the children.
Housewife is always better to make a close knit family..... but doesn't mean that during down time when the kids are at school she should be watching TV, gossiping or ehmmm....scratching. In this 21st century she should learn some skill or educate herself so she can also make some financial contributions to the household... or step up and be the breadwinner should the husband lose his job..... lose income due to illness... or his finances redirected by one of the many many husband snatchers.
After saying all this crap..... one is not better than the other... too many other factors are involved.

Yes a full time house wife will have time for her kids bt if d house is nt homely enough it will nt hav effect on d kids. Five years bck, i would have loved to b a full time hux wife bt after staying at a relative's place for awhile i will nt even tink of it, d humiliation was jux too much even it was nt hapening sometimes i culdnt even stop myself frm crying to sleep altgough sme r lucky.
Re: Housewives Vs Career Women by Dfinex(f): 6:51pm On Jul 16, 2017
While being a house wife can never be said to be easy, I must say I will rather opt for career as more exposure is gained, mental power is built and financial independence follows.

Career women may likely not have all the time in the world for their family like the full housewives would but I personally think that there is more advantage in that than disadvantage: for example less time for gossips, less time for stalking hubby, even lesser time for nagging plus they try to make the most of the unavailable time - time to them is defined by what is achieved.

Yeah that's right "one is not better than the other" ....however I'll like to point out that the job of child rearing does not fall on the woman by default. The man and wife are both stakeholders - so therefore being a career woman should in no wise affect child upbringing or the lifestyle of the family in general.

The onus lies on both man and wife to work it out in the most convenient way.

I must say that woman is her own problem: it has nothing to do with her job or the fact that she's a career woman cos even if she were to be a full house wife her children would still be the same or worst. I think she has a character flaw which has affected the upbringing of her kids
