Mother’ s Position

Different people have different ideas about mother’ s position. Some people think that mothers should stay at home, clean the house, cook the meals, wash the clothes and raise the children. That is to say, mothers are housewives and they are only in charge of the household chores.

But some hold that mothers should go out to find a job. They think men’s burden is too heavy nowadays, and since women can hold half of the sky, mothers should earn money to support the family with fathers. At the same time, mothers realize the equality between men and women. In addition, mothers can make contributions to the society through their work.

In my opinion, it is mothers who should decide whether they stay at home or go out to find a job. If mothers prefer to be housewives, nobody should force them to work outside the house. In contrast, if mothers like to go out for a job ,nobody should have the right to prevent them from doing so. Mothers should have their own choice.
