Is it right for husbands to help their wives with household chores?

SHARE WITH FRIENDS:

One day a friend of mine came to visit me. We drank tea with him and talked about life. After a while, I said, "I'll wash the dishes and come back." He looked at me as if I was telling him I was going to build a rocket.

Then he said angrily to me, “It’s your age to help your wife. I never help my wife because she never sees what I do. I cleaned the house last week, but he didn't even say thank you. "

So I sat down and explained to him, “I don’t help my wife either. My wife does not need an assistant. My wife needs a partner. ”

- I don't help my spouse clean the house.

As long as I live in this house, I also have to clean the house.

- I don't help my wife cook.

I want to eat too, so I have to stand in front of the gas stove too.

“I don’t help my wife wash the dishes after dinner.

After the meal, I also wash the dishes. Because it’s my dishes too.

"I don't help my wife look after her children."

They are my children too, so I have to father them.

“I don’t help my wife wash the laundry and dry them.

It’s the clothes of me and my kids, they need to stay clean.

- I do not help with household chores.

I am a member of this family and I also have to deal with household chores.

Haven't you thought about that, my friend. Once you’ve cleaned your house, should I give you a lifetime of honor for it?… Why?

Do you remember the last time you thanked your wife after she had cleaned the house, prepared the food, washed the children, and so on? Or you were taught from a young age that only women should do housework, or you were taught from a young age to think, "Everything is done by yourself, you don't even have to move a finger."

Instead of being a kind guest to your wife in your own home, be a good partner. Trust me, women at home don’t need to eat, sleep, wash, in short just a polite guest who meets their needs.

All the good changes in life start with the family. Let’s show our children what a good partner and true respect should be.
