Moms working outside home

I really liked the two articles that I read in order to prepare for this class because many people think that women are giving up her mind for a mop, when moms choose motherhood over a full-time worker.  Also, in the article is mentioned that working women are more valuable to society than a homemaker moms who stay at home with their children rather than work outside home. A woman who decides to work outside instead of having children by choice, it will affect the society not only now, but in the future. The reason is because the birthrate will drop and this will lead a less productive society in the long run. Stay home moms is the most important job that any other job you can think of. The reason is because moms will lead next generation as mothers, fathers, public servants, writers and artists, scientists and business leaders – those whose development the future entirely depends upon. This was mentioned in the article that I am totally agreed.

I believe that women should have their degree in case that she needs to work outside because a major situation happens at home. These situations can be illness; husband lost his job, divorce, husband die. However, women should stay at home to teach their children to be the future generation. Once, their children are grown-up they come back to the workforce. Moms can apply their degree with their children to help them to go through school. As in the article is mentioned a stay home mom can be informed what is going on around the world without going outside and work.

challenge of communication

Communication is very important as human beings because if we communicate, we will avoid so many problems and misunderstanding. I remember when I was growing up that my parents had problems with communication and understanding each other. I was the one that I tried to be an example to both of them. However, it was not effective because my mother believed that she was not the problem. It was so frustrated for my brother and I to see my parents fighting most of the time. I have never had this problem because I believe that communication is very important in order to have harmony and happiness not only at home, but any type of environment we are in. Sometimes, it is not easy to communicate our feelings because we don't want to hurt others feelings. It has been a challenge for me to communicate what I feel to certain people in my life. I know these people don't want to see their reality. However, I like when my friends or love ones advise me because this makes me a better person. My conclusion is that we need to communicate more frequently and avoid texting constantly. There are times when people got hurt their feeling because their misunderstood a text. Heavenly Father wants us to be able to communicate to avoid hard feeling and disappointments. Therefore, communication is the key to have not only successful marriage, but good relationship with others around us that we love too. 

Family crisis

This week has been identified with this subject because as I was growing up my family had a lot of crises. I believe that we need to have crisis in order to progress and be closer to our Heavenly Father. Also, if we don't have crisis, we will die because our bodies need to experience stress in order to make changes in our lives. There are so many  types of family crisis that affect individual in different ways. As I said, my family had so many crisis in their lives that I was hard for me to help them every time. It is important to recognize when one of the members of the family creates that tension at home it is better to approach this member and try to help the best we can. In my case, I did not success with my mom because she never realized that she was the problem at home. I tried so hard to help her, but all my efforts were in vain to the point that my father started drinking alcohol. It was hard for my father to cope with everything at home. It was very sad for me to find out that my father started drinking because he couldn't  handle my mother. I believe if my mother would have changed, we would have avoid so many crisis at home. However, all these crisis made me grow quick and know keep trying not matter how difficult circumstances are.

intimacy in the marriage.

This week we have been discussed how important is to communicate how the couple feels about each other. It is not easy to figure it out how each other feel when they have intimacy. It is important that the couple talk about the experience and go from there. There are many cases where one of the spouse feel that intimacy is only physical need. However, intimacy is only more than that. Intimacy is where the couple become one and feel complete. It is a special moment because the couple can know each other better. Also, we discussed that when a couple is getting married should go through basic things. It is recommended that couple read some specific books in order to be prepared for the special moment. There are a lot of advises that newlyweds can learn to have not only great communication but great physical intimacy. However, marriage is more than intimacy. Marriage is understanding and support each not only in the good moments, but in the bad moments in our lives. Marriage is the key to be together as a family.

Pregnancies

This week we were discussing about when women get pregnant and all what they need to go through. Pregnancies are not easy to handle because women's bodies have some many hormonal changes and their bodies are constantly adjusting through those changes. It is hard to keep those emotions under control most of the time. For men, it is hard to understand what their wife are going through and they don't know how to help them. I think it is important that husbands support their wives through the whole pregnancy because their wives need that love and understanding. Another thing that I learned in class that when the day has come to have the baby the person next to the new mom is her husband. Moms want to be there. However, in this precious moment husband and wife need to share this amazing experience together. It is not one else experience only the couple experience. Also, we discussed that after the baby was born some husbands think that their wives don't love them anymore. This is not right. New mothers need to spend more time with the baby because it requires time to handle everything. It will be a great idea when husbands help wives with the new baby. They will realize how busy a mom can get. There are some cases where women don't care literally about their husband is only about their baby. In this case I will recommend that husbands need attention too. Therefore, it is important to have balance in the marriage so when hard times comes the couples are willing to work together. Having children is a wonderful experience and couples should be thrilled to help each other.
