Has the world changed?? Still, I can't believe it. I can only take a deep breath.
A man had married years ago. He worked for the family, but he earned less than his wife. In the occasion of Ied-ul Fitr this year, I met and asked him where he works now. He said he works at home taking care of his own's children. While,, as for you to know... He has 4 children and his wife works alone. I don't know what inside their family is, but..I see something burdensome in the eyes and face of his wife.
Another story was from a friend. A husband lives at the house of his parents-in-law, doing nothing (without working).....meanwhile...his wife works in another town. What a view...! Mm.
In my country and I guess also many other countries, there's no caste or level of society in marriage. But when it comes to the FAMILY of WIFE more capable than the FAMILY of HUSBAND ...OR.... WIFE earns more,,,,
WILL it really become a problem in their future?
If it DEPENDS on something, what is that?
Do you have any stories about such a case??
Every premise is an option. Here I just want to hear your opinion. Thank you very much. :)

I disagree with the idea that a woman should be kept at home 'to maintain tranquility and take up responsibilities of household' because working is not necessary only just for earning money but also keeping oneself healthy materially and mentally be it a woman or a man. Taking care of children and doing the same things every day are stressful, a woman needs to change environment to release from everyday stressful routine. Such 'stereotypes' about keeping women at home are the matter of cultural diversity. In my opinion balance must be kept in a family of any duty. :)
Hi EC member,
It is actually a choice. I agree with you about healthy mentally. I guess you mean communicating with people (not gossiping) which make a woman healthy mentally. Reading is also good. Woman can still use their talent as long as it is not too far since her main duty is educating children. Yeah, I can call this balance. :)
No one should get stressed in the family. Thank you for sharing your view. ^^
Dear Rosemary,
That's what I mean. I think, a woman, however, is a delicate creature which hard work could spoil her body sooner, get wrinkled sooner. They may be strong, but, I think women work mostly for they have activities, unless no man anymore in the family.
Let's hope there won't be any problems with them. Or at least, they find a good solution one day.
Thanks a lot for sharing your point of view.
Let me tell u something some women choose to keep the family together for the sake of their kids or for other reasons why don't know about . Nevertheless , every women standing to feed a man and his kids is really miserable , because , she is forced to do so . No matter how much she dose to keep the walls of her house from crumbling down , problems will pop out to the surface one day
I doubt that such men can give love and kindness to women who are supporting them finicially , it's really bad to live like this .
Wowww, Andy...... I have to say...... I love your reply. ^^
So sweeeeet!! Thanks for sharing your opinion. ^^
Thanks for sharing your opinion, Edwin. It is reasonable. Let's hope no one feel burdened. :)
Don't burden her to much especially in financial problems but if in some circumstances, a wife must work outside, then it must be assumed as a temporary solution. Only a wife can be a good mother, not a man :).
Yeah, Diah. I agree with Luci's comment though the last words is a little harsh. :D :D
I mean that, the main worker shouldn't be a wife. ^^ Thanks for your comment.
What a good topic Onee-Chan! I do not care who's the one that providing money to the Family and taking care of the children, I mean, whatever works for them.
