Helo erh.germany@erh.germany....

I was away from online life for more than a month. Reading this of your message today. Hope you are doing well.

Okay..... So the answer to your 2 (×ply by many 😃) cents is not that straight.

Our society has its own complications and problems. For intantance, my friend settled in Canada told me that they just need to clean their house once a week. I was like "wowwww". We need to do cleaning with broom twice a day. There is so so much dust. Dusting a book shelf or a divider takes so much of your time. When it comes to broom, it is same. The nooks and corners of your house and so filled with dust every time.

Now about if I am the only woman doing household...... So the thing is that yes, I am the only one to take care of my two kids and a husband. My parents in law are also included in the responsibility.

But wait.......!
I am not the only lady in my home. I live in a big joint family living in a house divided in 3 floors. 22 persons in all. I share my floor with a sister-in-law. There are 5 kids and 4 adults sharing the floor.
The ladies of each household have their own families to deal with.

Yes, sometimes I feel a need to have a company of another woman who could assist me in my household duties but doesn't seem likely to happen at least in near future. My younger son (6 years old) does help me in doing some tasks like setting dinner table and fetching things from refrigerator. I appreciate him for his little love filled efforts.

As you mentioned about day care thing, there is nothing like that in our case.
From their breakfast to dinner is my responsibility. I have to help them in their school home work. (Actually, I give them proper tuition).

Besides, women in our society are supposed to have many other unnamed tasks such as ironing the dresses of the whole family. You know, too much of role expectations.
The other day, we had to go for visiting some relative. I was too busy the whole day while my husband had a holiday. He had been surfing tiktok and whatsapp for hours. I thought of telling him to iron his dress if he is that free. I COULD NOT. I felt like guilty within 😕. Though I know there is nothing wrong. Still I felt like that.
