Traditional Wives

Ask a Question

I read something before about a woman raising her daughter up as a traditional wife I think it very outdated I've always been told don't rely on anyone what's your thoughts on this?

I guess everyone has a different view on this. It is good to be self sufficient but if a lady (or man) is happy doing more of the home stuff and it works in their relationship then that's great. I've got a few friends who could be considered "traditional wives" and they say they're way happier than if they worked a full time job.

I don't think any child should be brought up to conform to what their parents are/want, but if they choose that path later in life fine, free choice. Parents should prepare their children for life lessons whatever their gender i.e. Cooking, cleaning, changing a tyre, etc.

I wouldn't do this but each to their own I think. 'Traditional' roles work in many modern relationships. You would expect your partner to treat you like an equal and respect you regardless 😃

Narrowing a child options for growth and development is never a good thing.

The duggers did that with their girls. To be honest that was a right fail whale for the whole family

How would this work for those in a same sex relationships?

Everyone should be taught the same life skills, learn to make decisions and to learn a good work ethic, whatever path they choose will be up to them.

The main thing we need to teach everyone is to be positive and to be kind.

Sex/Gender shouldn't play a huge part in what we teach people in my opinion.

If you are saying a traditional wife, is a wife that stays at home and brings up the children while the husband goes out to work, well that was me. It worked well for us.
