Homemakers

I recently read Dennis Pragner's article, Does A Full-Time Homemaker Swap Her Mind For a Mop?.  In response to this article, I completely agree with it.  Full-time homemakers definitely do not swop their minds for a mop.  They may not be learning secular knowledge, unless they are helping their children with homework.  But, they are keeping their mind active and stimulated with other things.  I know many housewives that join book clubs, take up sewing, or some type of hobby, specifically to make sure that they don’t do things mindlessly.  In the article, it said that they listen to talk radio for hours a day and broaden their knowledge considerably.  I think that those people that say that homemakers trade their minds for mops don’t fully understand how these women work.
