HOUSEWORK MATTERS:
If having a clean place to live didn’t matter, people wouldn’t hire housekeepers. Housework not only matters but it is an integral necessity when it comes to home ownership or renting a place to live. Housework keeps a home clean and orderly, which in turns keeps the people in the home clean and orderly; without a clean and orderly home, people suffer. A housewife knows the importance of housework and doesn’t want the people she loves to suffer; she knows that housework matters and that she matters, too.
