With kids going wild and shooting up schools much criticism has been
brought up about both parents working outside the home. It emphasizes
on parents being too busy to pay attention to their children. In turn
many women are making a conscious decision to leave their careers in
order to take care of the little ones (including myself). To me this
is good but, some women are forgetting about their financial security
and becoming 100% dependents of their partners. Not only that but,
they are also failing to brush up on their skills and neglecting their
education. In my opinion this is wrong!
I know you may be thinking Kenia why is it wrong to worry more about
your children rather than in material things? And here is my answer to
you: Dependency may increase the risk of domestic abuse. In case you
do not understand my point I will explain: women that are lacking the
self esteem, skills etc. to obtain a job as well as having no
financial independence often feel trapped in abusive relationships.
They stay because they can't provide the financial security for their
children.
Remember all those women that fought for our rights so, that we can
too be independent in every way possible. Do not let their efforts be
in vain. So, women if you want to stay with your kid because you want
to see them grow closely and give them all the love and attention they
deserve, Do it! But, remember to keep brushing up your skills or find
ways to stay financially independent from home.
Who says you can not have your cake and eat it too? There are many
people running businesses from home as well as getting a college
education. If you seek for it you will find the resources. But, never
loose control of your life!
