Yes, but it definitely makes it less stressful to hire out things you don't want to do.

yes depending on your definition of successful

there is always a give and take - most American women for example must work outside the home because of the economic times.

studies show that children are more successful in families were women work outside the home -

lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?


Yes, of course they can. But statistically speaking;

They're less likely to get married.
If they do get married, they're more likely to divorce.
She is more likely to cheat on her Husband.
She is much less likely to have kids.
If she does have kids, she is more likely to be unhappy about it.
He will be unhappy if she makes more than him.
She will be unhappy if she makes more than him.

And saving the best until the last: the Husband is more likely to fall ill. A study found that a Wife who works under 40 hours a week had no impact on her Husband's health, but a Wife who worked over 40 hours a week had, and I quote, a "substantial, statistically significant, negative effects on changes in her husband’s health over that time span". Awesome.

where do you get your statistics from? the statistics that I know are bonafide or that 85% of all married couples in America experience a bout of infidelity - most husbands not wives - most marriages end in divorce 43% - it takes 2 to make a marriage -

men statistically die sooner than women - so the substantial statistically signifcant negative effects of her husband's health has to do with biology not the non existence relationship to a wife working outside the home.

No it doesn't, otherwise there could be no difference to her Husband's health dependent upon the amount of hours a week the Wife works.

lalasierra: Can women successfully combine both career and home?



Of course they can. I was divorced when my daughter was 5 years old. I had to go to work and it was a full time job. The work didn't end at 5:00 pm. I went home cooked dinner for the two of us, did the laundry, cleaned the house, went to Girl Scouts meetings, went on Girl Scout camping trips, went to her school plays, grocery chopping, clothes shopping, birthday parties, and on top of all that I was dating. That continued until she was 18 and went to college and even then on weekends I took cartons full of healthy fresh food to her at college.

Home and career? There's a lot assumed in what 'home' means. Without any clarification, I deal with 'home' and 'career' just fine.

Among my friends I used to have one whom had not a career, she was a house-wife and also she had several people to do the clearing of her home and the laundry, the ironing, etc… but she wanted her husband to help with some house-chores when the “help” was not home!!!

Being at home does not guarantee that a woman (or man) will be in charge for a good running of a home and to look after the children as being a career woman (or man) does not impede to be a good mother (father) and to run a home in a good way.

I have an uncle that is single and for his age is *particularly good looking. When women here of his age they can't believe it. Unfortunately he's a religious fundamentalist. laugh
