depress housewife

Do you have a friend or family member that could watch the kids? Have two people lined up... perhaps another housewife, and offer to pay a couple of dollars for their trouble ;) Then Kids shouldnt be an issue but it is odd that you would get rejected because of your children. You do know that a company doesn't have a right to inquire about whether or not you have children. If they do answer that you have your priorities straight and are a dedicated worker. That if you do have children you have tended to that issue before hand. That sort of response not only shows you are prepared but as well you thought about handling your personal life outside of work before hand. That you are truly dedicated. I hope this was of some help for you.

Many women with children get hired, so I doubt that is the problem! Perhaps it is your own self-image that you are "only a housewife" that is holding you back. There is nothing wrong with being "only a housewife," it is a woman's highest calling to raise children and take care of her family. Present yourself to prospective employers as a capable, confident woman who is willing to take on challenges! Just be persistent, keep trying, and if no one will hire you, make your own career! As a wife and mother, you must have some skills that could be translated to a career. Do you enjoy cooking? Start a catering service. Can you sew? Do some garment construction or tailoring. Love kids? Start a day-care center. Look at what skills you do have that you would enjoy providing to others beyond your own family. I made my own career as a writer and merchant of secondhand merchandise (secondhand is beoming more popular now, losing it's stigma, and there is good money to be made by going to public auctions and reselling the merchandise). Best of luck to you!
