Our presentation is about rozpocznij naukę
|
|
the pros and cons of traditional roles in a family.
|
|
|
First, to make it clear what we mean by traditional roles rozpocznij naukę
|
|
we're thinking of the man as breadwinner, as the one who earns the money to support the family, while the woman stays at home and takes care of the children.
|
|
|
At home, generally speaking the woman does the housework rozpocznij naukę
|
|
the cooking, cleaning, etcetera
|
|
|
rozpocznij naukę
|
|
might do home repairs and take care of the car.
|
|
|
rozpocznij naukę
|
|
the roles are very clearly defined; both the man and woman know who does what, so there's less confusion and fewer conflicts about that.
|
|
|
So, on the negative side, rozpocznij naukę
|
|
, if the man is always the one who works, there can be too little contact between father and child, and that can’t be good for the family.
|
|
|
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, rozpocznij naukę
|
|
a lot of women will of course want to work and develop a career, both for their own satisfaction and independence, and also to be a role model for their children.
|
|
|
that's bound to be good for rozpocznij naukę
|
|
the health of the whole family.
|
|
|
Also, in some couples, the woman will be good at tasks traditionally done by the man, and vice-versa rozpocznij naukę
|
|
For instance, if the man is a better cook than the woman, while the woman is better at fixing the car and mowing the lawn
