The main obligations of a wife

During the early days, it was expected that a man works to provide for his family, while the wife stays at home to look after the children and attend to his needs. Such a scenario rarely exist today; life is tough and both parents need to work to make both ends meet, or rather to give their children brighter future. but with the wife also trying to earn a living, are the house chores still her responsibility?

It was preferably goes like this women work in office hours,as they go home they prepare the dinner and spent time with the kids, playing for a minute then asking them about their homework.

It depends on the couple if they divide each responsibilities especially household chores.Some husband does,but some are not.Because some guys says i am tired from work.

that is true that many women need to work in order to make both ends meet. i was fortunate that i was able to stay home with our two daughters while they were growing up. now that they are teens, i work part time as my main focus is our daughters. sure things may be tight but it is important to my hubby and i that i take care of our daughters. children should have a parent that stays home with them while they are young.

MY husband and I both working because we want to save to support our future children and give all the best to them as much as we could. Most of the time were both tired and busy with our work but we made sure to help each other in all household chores because I cant do house chores alone. I think both husband and wife are responsible in household chores since they live together and by helping each other the chores become very easy and fast to do.

I always believe that behind every successful man is an equally supportive woman. The times may change and the roles women play also evolve, but on top of everything that's expected of her in terms of domestic and marital bliss, I think the main obligation of a wife is to be her husband's anchor, pride and joy, and partner.

Yes, I was a mother of two and my husband was working harder to attend all are needs,His income was sometimes insufficient and we need to budget all the expenses daily.

It depends on the decision of the husband and wife. Lucky is a wife who has his husband share some of the chores. Such kind of husband is a very understanding one. I think it is every girl's dream to be married to a man who does not only sweep her off her feet and provide for the family, but also does his share on household chores too.
