It is not a surprise that nowdays marriages don't last for long and for those who are able to keep it together for atleast more than 10 years are seen as role models in this difficult journey of marriage. Let us ask ourselves, what does a good marriage entails. To most people a good marriage entails; commitment, faithfullness availability, love, finance among others but we usually forget the most important role when we come to marriage which is knowing our responsibilities as a man and as a woman. The today's world woman is a very busy woman with so much commitment in her work and ofcourse her friends, that the earliest you can expect her to be in the house is around 9:00pm and in other cases, she has some followup meeting to do that she never turn up until the following day. When the today's woman comes home, she is very tired and spend most of her time sleeping waiting for the next day scedule. This is one of the area that today's woman fail, it is true that the economic status are not getting better as days goes by but we need flexibility in our scedule. For that busy woman with children back at home, she expects the nanny to take the role of the mother and look after her children as well as the husband. When the husband comes from work, the first person who welcomes him home is a smiling nanny and attend typically to his basic needs as the wife is busy doing her "work". To me, this is where we fail as women. God gave us children and husbands to be able to care for them but not to leave them under the care of nannies. As times goes by, the affection that the husband gets from nanny make him realize that even though he got married to his wife, the person taking care of him and his children is no longer his wife but the nanny and sooner he decides to switch. To us women, we are left asking what happened to our marriage but sincerely you never ask where did I fail in this marriage. Let us be real and take our responsibilities seriously. Try to spend quality time with your family and make a flexible schedule in consideration of your family.

I like this Mashnn I am a first time wife just got married a year ago and will be celebrating my anniversary next month. I dare not have another woman nor sitter nor nanny take care of my children. I just had a son 8months ago and this is my husbands first plus the two daughters I have which make three.Right now I am a full time student a stay at home mom and I guess tonight after all nights I had got really depressed my husband is working two jobs to make ends meet with my past always haunting my future all I can do is be a good wife. I tried to look for a work at home job and most of them want you to pay and most are scams so I found myself here. Right now I took my husband to work over an hour ago and I am sitting here typing to you. Although mylot doesn't pay much I figure I can do something and eventually it will pay off. I love my boo and my thing is the day that I God blessed me with I would do my part of making him complete whether its cooking the foods he like, to massaging his back to staying up just to watch him sleep I will and never will stop doing so to give my job up to another woman I dare not. For the mean time I will continue to search for a great workathome job that's not a scam or ebay or survey and so forth. So if anyone knows one please mail me in my inbox. Again Mashnn will woman will have to stand up before the next woman takes her job.

I think you have decided on a better option. I was also sometimes having the same dilemma either to go back in my country where I could find a descent work to do and leave my husband behind with my son and a nanny but I decided that family comes first before money so I am still looking for something today that atleast can give me something little. Hope to get a part time job or so. Do let another women take away your family.
