Normal House wives

On certain nights you can turn on Bravo and can watch another version of The Real Housewives, it could be Orange County, Dallas, Utah, Beverly Hills, and Atlanta.

When I think of real housewives I think of housewives I think of women raising their children with no nannies, they participate in PTA at school, help with special events. The dads also get involved in there children’s interest in school and after school events.

These shows to me don’t portray this at all. These women live in million dollar houses, and have maids, and nannies. Many of these women have husbands that work in elaborate jobs, yes some of the women have businesses, but they did not have to get a bank loan for there businesses, many just got the money from their husbands. Most of there kids all go to private schools. You rarely see any of them ride a regular school bus. The wives seem like they are always going on some elaborate trip without there children or husbands, there are a few that the husbands were included. When the wives are out of town they must have a live in sitter because we all know the husbands would not be able to control all the kids.

while the wives are out the husbands go out to eat, or have poker night in a basement. They don’t include the children. The nanny has to watch them . Where is the quality time that these families should have. Spend time with your children not just helping in there school work but get out and do things with them. Yes, iI know many of these wives have a movie theater in there home, a game room, and some a basketball court. There are other things you can do like take them to the zoo, go to a historical museum, go to an arts festival. The point is get out and enjoy the time you have with you children. Take a lesson from the show Don’t Be Tardy, These past few episodes are about Kim, and Croy, and all the children driving in a RV GOING CROSS COUNTRY. YES there are arguments and disagreements, and kids disobeying, and yes the nanny is there but it is still the whole family experiencing something together.

My intrupertation of a house wife is one not having a nanny, cook, maid to help. It was both parents working together as a team.Family vacations when everyone goes, an no nannies were on hand. All the children had real chores to accomplish to get an allowander. Kids had to earn money because it was made clear that you learn more when given responsibility instead of going to either parent and asking for money.

Teaching values at a young age in our children help them understand that not everything is handed to you on a silver plate. Hardy states you can work builds character. In can get a waiver for a fifteen year old to get employment. Most states it s legal to start at sixteen. Paper routes s younger, but parents have to be up earlier to assist like driving the route on a rain morning or snowy morning, that just makes even more fun when not knowing the elements until the morning.

Yes many kids from the upper class society and don’t think they have to do anything, but kids from the middle class society, and lower class society value the dollar more, and tend to spend wisely.

So are these sit ones portray real high society life style, in a way yes, but in other ways it gives a wrong sense to children that you don’t have to work if you don’t want to. The ones that do have jobs like in modeling are introduced by either the mother or by someone who knows someone. Many don’t have to get on the computer and put in application to get a job.

Many join the family business, which is great, but how will they experience the real meaning of walking the pavement, knocking on doors, having real interviews. Finally getting the true satisfaction of actually getting a job on there on without mommy and daddy’s help. This is what the middle and lower class children do. They go store to store putting in application if that store still has them other than that they are applying online, and keeping tract of whom they sent an application to and a phone number, and date they applied. Then usually two to three days they contact the company for which they applied and ask to speak to tme he manager and say who they are and letting them know that they are still interested in the position at the store, basically they are selling them self over the phone, unlike the old days your first impression meant everything especially when you are asking for an application, back then what you wore also counted.

So in regards to the shows I mentioned earlier, they really don’t portray a real house wife, yes I know this could cause some controversy, but as I have been always told is speak your opinion, and others may do the same because it is ther right as an American citizen.
