Why do taking care of children falls mostly on the mother?
Hi everyone, a beautiful evening from this side, currently I am lying down on the cold tiled floor with my door wide open for the cool evening breeze to come in , regardless of mosquitoes that will soon start disturbing, well that's why they created insecticide.
Why do caring for children fall mostly on the mother, sometimes I wonder if there was a rule or law that states that only mothers can fully take care of children , in this part of the world (Nigeria) mothers are sole caregiver for the children , why the dad goes to work and all, even mothers that work still come back and continue the job, really I have been thinking if this was God Intial plan for women, cause if I remember correctly, the bike said women are to be help mates to their husband. But what I don't get is are women the only person who are qualified to care got their children or is it both of them job to care for children, okay you might be confused about what I mean, caring as in
Bathing them
Washing their clothes
Taking them to school and bringing them back home
Scolding them when they are wrong
Arranging their clothes
Doing their homework, etc
When the kids get injured ,the mothers are being scolded for it, seriously, who made the law?, I feel mothers and fathers should do these things together, well not in this part of the world, though there are men who do these but they are very rare, rare in sense that it has been concluded that children caring should be for mothers, for me I think it should be done together.
What's your take in this? Mothers&Fathers In the house?
