I mean with adults her own age not kids and to get out the house
I am not rude. If she didn’t have her husband she would be on benefits. There is no difference between someone on benifits and a housewife they are both getting money from people that do work to provide for them because they can’t provide for themselves. Just a different system. Just stereo types.
there’s a big difference really between a housewife and someone sat at home being lazy & on benefits.
If she didn’t have her husband, she would work. But she does have a husband who earns enough to provide for them both so she doesn’t NEED to work if that’s how they want to do it in their family.
I recently separated from my husband. When we were living together I didn’t work, because he made enough to support us and if I had worked, my whole wage would’ve just gone on childcare so there was literally no point. I worked when my oldest was younger but quit when he got sick so I could spend my time with him & care for him and then just never went back. it was NEVER about me not being able to provide for myself. It was just what was best for our family financially and at the time, emotionally.
we split and now I work. I provide for myself (just about, shits hard). But the point is it was never about me not being able to provide for myself.
What is good for one family may not be good for another and frankly I find you very rude and ignorant. If it’s right for their family for Brooke to stay home then thats their choice and it seems to be working for them pretty well.
Some mothers are happy to be at home with their children. And one parent providing the childcare usually enables the other to earn more, otherwise they are paying out for childcare or constantly juggling between them. If they dont pay for childcare they keep all their money! From what little I've seen the whole family seem quite insular. With the children not in school, presumably they dont have the opportunity to make as many friends as they may have otherwise. They seem to operate as a business, kids and parents included, more than an average (albeit large) family.
childcare was a huge reason I didn’t go back to work initially. Plus I was grieving and just wanted to be with my kids all the time, but childcare sorta justified it.
my ex and I worked out that if I’d gone back to work months ago when we were still together I would’ve brought home about £10 a month. That was going off my old job, thankfully I have a better one now but a huge part of my wage goes on childcare.
