Mop or Mind?

So most of America really think that being a full time homemaker is unimportant, unfulfilling, and in some cases demoralizing in feminists eyes. They see cleaning, changing diapers, and cooking all burdens and tasks that do not show their great potential. And for the most part I agreed with this because I worked in a day care for a summer and I felt that my knowledge exceeded the repetition of changing the multitude of diapers and putting babies to sleep. But when I came to the realization that repetition is what a typical job is you show up at 9am and stay till 5pm performing the same tasks. While leaving your children, and some might say that they work because they need both salaries; the harsh reality is that in most cases you are actually paying around $1,000 to $5,000 yearly if the mother works out of the home. And although this is alarming some still feel like they cannot be pleased with having to stay home but the variety they are looking is truly in the home. While raising your children you will encounter situation everyday that will force you to expand your knowledge. These will vary from helping with learning to read and taking trips to library, to explaining some of the greatest questions purposed by your kids, to learning as they build projects. All of these if taken advantage will expand your knowledge and if you take grasp on these situations then you will not only be fulfilled but achieve what you never could at a 9am-5pm.
