Many people say that women should stay at home raise children, while men should work and earn money to support their families. However, today, some people see the role of families from another pint of view. Now, I will talk about my friend whose name is Saki.
Saki is thirty years old. She married a man whose name is Sosuke 10 years ago. She has a son whose name is Haruto and he is 8 years old. This is very natural and we often see such a family style. However, there is a difference between this family and other general families. Saki works at a famous company where she has an important position. Sosuke stays at home and does all the housework, the cleaning, the cooking, and raises their child. He is not a housewife but a house husband!
When Saki and Sosuke got married, she told him that she wanted to continue working. So, Sosuke quit his job and decided to stay at home. At first, many people opposed their way. They said that Saki should stay at home, but she didn’t want to give up her job.
When her son Haruto was born, she worried about child care and thought about retiring. However, she took parental leave for a year and then went back to her job. She could continue working because of her husband’s help. Haruto grew up without any trouble.
Now, she works hard every day. Her son, Haruto also admires her life style. Her husband, Sosuke, does almost all the housework without any complaints. Everything goes well.Sometimes, people tend to think about gender roles. However, I think it is wrong. It’s about time we start thinking our real place in society.
