being a woman /housewife is not a joke oo, my wife has been gone for 3 days now on a compulsory trip and I feel my whole life is on a pause.

with five children , the youngest (2yrs) is the most reason I feel this way. I wouldn't want to put him in a day care so as to go to work because I'm afraid of the dreaded covid, so I chose to stay off work for 8 days to take care of him , it's been very stressful and I realise what women go through in putting house inorder is not a joke, it's a real work and should be well compensated.

hence, I've decided to increase my wife monthly income and to respect *more* the roles she plays in building my home, to all SURE mothers out there, kudos to you all.

Lol

Being a mother is not easy o!
Big shout out to all women.

God bless you for this thread.

Only a mentally parochial element won't appreciate the role of a dutiful housewife. A dutiful housewife isn't the same as a lazy housewife/an unproductive wife.

no be play play o, I just sneaked out now to go wash my car and get some drugs, my little boy won't let me be.

he will wake me up with kicks in the middle of the night to get his tea, could take me hours to catch another round of sleep being a light sleeper . I had to change his room so my oldest daughter can feel what motherhood seems like.... all these my wife will do without complaints, may God bless her for me.

sometimes when I wake in the night to use the rest room, will see her attending to him, i will just stylishly bounce on d bed and sleep off, little did I know what she goes through

One of the things that is making me scared of getting married. Your lifestyle and routine will change without warning and one will have to start re-adjusting to an uncomfortable lifestyle.

Big ups to all mothers. It's not easy.

This was my husband March this year when I travelled.

On my arrival, they were all at the balcony waiting. See the way he handed over my toddler who had cattarrh ruining his face .
Next day we went to hospital to get them dewormed. He had fed them all the sugary things in the world to pacify them during my absence.

For days he'd shudder and say"childcare isn't easy. how are you able to do it"?

thanks, I'm patiently waiting. I even mistake tomorrow to be Friday while talking with my wife over the phone, lol.

You guys always underestimate the role of a mother. Its not easy to be a mother and a caregiver.

My dear brother, Women dey TRY !

Lolz

Women are stronger than men by default, i have known this since 1700

Five kids in this Bihariconomy, covidconomy?

Lord is your strength

Is he complaining to you? Did he ask you for money?

You goofed big time.

Five Children! . Your five dey try ooo


I use to want two set of twins but these days I find myself contemplating to have just two children ooo.

I think Klass99 fever is catching up with me

OP, you should have a gift waiting for your wife upon her return.

Thank you for appreciating your wife on the roles she plays in your family, I tell you it's not easy @ all. They say 'seeing is believing', you have seen, believed and even appreciated. Some men are aware of all these things but will never appreciate their wives instead they'll be treating their wives like slaves.

Pls continue to appreciate your wife and increase her monthly allowance from time to time.

May God bless you and your family in uncountable ways.....amen!

Women are strong oohh.i wish some men will see this.

Lol
That is why most kids don't joke with their mothers at all.

.

So if you didn't play housewife you won't appreciate your wife.


Oniranu nie

Loool, its good to experience this

Klass99:


Yeye gyel , you are actually catching sense (my kind of sense) and not fever.

Where have you been and how have you been?

Recently I got more involved with reality... Marriage, family, children etc and I realize it takes a lot more than wish and fantasy to make some things work. Honestly, I find myself questioning my mental readiness and ability for such journey . Please I can only handle two.

I've been doing good, being very busy too. With work and life. How have you been too?

Some people just ignore this thread sha.

Change the topic now to “my wife is denying me sex”, they will land like eagle to tell you she isn’t overworked.

Oya OP tell us, as body dey you now, to knack be your problem? Toor! Any man that thinks it is easy to handle the home should do it for 1week. Only to come up with healthy meals for the family can make you have headache sef.

Chaiii.... Women go through all these and at night,Oga will be expecting a bedmatics tournament.

TBH their is no easy role, nd its gud you're appreciating ur wife, i don't think women will find men's role easy as well.
Appreciate your wife and support her when necessary buh don't go overboard ... be guided so she doesnt get entitled or let tinz get into her head, save us all the stress of reading "i opened a new account".


consider it an opinion.
