AVOIDING HOUSEWORK INVITES STRESS:
Putting off what has to get done can add stress to anyone’s life and especially for a housewife who either puts off housework until the last minute or doesn’t do housework at all.
Avoiding housework doesn’t just impact a housewife but everyone who lives in the home; a housewife can’t expect others to rise above her and do housework when she doesn’t set the example by doing housework herself.
If a housewife doesn’t tend to her housework tasks with diligence, her home and family suffer the consequences, and she does too.
Living in a mess doesn’t feel good and neither does living with stress; adding stress to a home and the people in it by not taking care of a home can easily be resolved by simply doing housework every day to make home the best it can be.
