Marriage can make even some working ladies stop their work and stay back to take care of their homes. Which would you rather do? Work or stay home?
For some, working is about their career and passion and for some others it might be a difficult choice, given they have to manage the house, children and work. But, I think it’s very important that you keep working after marriage and even after having kids. On the long run, your husband, kids and the house will be a part of you but the career is the only thing that is personal to you. Kids will grow to be independent and eventually seek their own future. Only in the end you will realise how much you have lost giving up your career. It’s not just about the money and the financial independence but it’s about doing something you like and which you are capable of. It gives you immense self confidence. Once you stop working, you stop there. There will be slow or no growth in happenings around you. Kids will outsmart you saying you don’t know about current trends and they are right. I think it’s important to build a career inspite of being rich or poor, married or unmarried, kids or no kids etc. It gives you a boost, an immense confidence and eventually in the long run, a purpose. Do not lose that purpose.
I don’t think women should stay at home to raise the kids. A father can do that too. I believe that there should be a parent at home and any parent can work. I’ve seen children being raised by nannies and babysitters of all sorts. In my opinion, a parent should stay at home to take care of the children while one parent works. I’ve seen a lot of troubled adults that blame their parents for not being with them in the most formative years. Every family is different. As a woman, work if you want to or need to but never forget that your time spent with the children will make a big difference in their lives as well as yours. I’m not the type of person who believes strictly that women should stay home to take care of the children. However I firmly believe that the more time spent with a child the better the relationship between parents and children.
