Labor of Love 💕

Fathers are so important to the family and I think as a society we are forgetting to give fathers the recognition they deserve. For years and years it has been women stay home to take care of kids and do housework, and men are the providers who work to support their family. Which is understanding because of what the Family Proclamation states when it said Women will nurture and Men will provide, protect, and preside. I’m not saying we need to let the men do all the work and be the only people who work in the family, especially nowadays. People are very passionate about feminism and wanting equality between women and men.

A lot of times their goal is to make women equal with the men, but often end up putting men down and treat them terribly for simply being a man. Even though for centuries men have always had more rights or appeared to be ahead we need to remember that things are different now and we can still give our love and support to men especially those who work and care for their family. It’s a two sided argument. Many people tell women you need to get a career, but then they also say you need to be a mom. It is really up to you and what the lords plan for you is because seeking an education is not always the answer. There are plenty of successful people who don’t have degrees.

When you have a father and mother it balances out a family. The father and mother duo work together as a team to accomplish the challenges of raising children and working. I always think of this symbol my teacher often writes when talking about the connection between man and women.

Fathers and Mothers support each other and are bonded together when married and it is their job to make sure nothing breaks that connection between them.

Psychologists routinely state that about 70% of divorces result from financial concerns; attorneys have stated that it is about 80%. Many times the father will be the one that works, depending on what job it is and what the family's financial situation they are in can either hurt or help the relationship of the family. If fathers are absent in the home and work a lot the mother and kids will start to develop a deeper bond. When both parents work it can cause a decrease in relationship with husband and kids.When 2 parents have kids and both parents get jobs, people tend to make less monthly than just the one person making money. When two people are working you have to pay for more stuff to take care of your children like daycare or other costs so people will watch your kids.

In the early days families worked together on the farm and developed close relationships as they labor together. As the years went on more and more people began to work aways from the farm and sometimes became guests in their own home. Initially, the changing role of women in the family was more subtle because the kind of work they did remained the same, but how their tasks were carried out changed drastically over the 20th century, influenced by the modernization of America’s factories and businesses. Children also worked alongside their parents on the farm learning everything they could, but eventually, the relationship of children and work inside the family completely reversed itself as the children went from economic asset to pampered consumer. As the years passed we’ve become more susceptible to take the easy way out or try to do the least amount of work possible, but when spouses work together love blossoms.
