Who'll pay the housewives?

The ideas of traditional family roles have changed markedly since the entry of women into the labour force. As the notion of 'natural' family roles has decreased so the awareness of the vital and sizeable quantity of unpaid work homekeepers (still predominantly women) do has increased. This raises questions about how voluntary and unpaid, or contractual and marketised the divisions of labour in family life should be. The running of a home, far from being just simple chores, has been and remains one of the bedrocks of a functional society. Without the work of a homekeeper, other family members would not be free to go to work and invest in a career for themselves. This would harm the family structure and the economy. The importance of this role means that the home labourer is entitled to some compensation. If the work had to be provided at market rates the cost would run to hundreds of billions of pounds or dollars a year. Typically still you can find many women undertaking the responsiblity to play the role of housewife especially after the childs birth. The one who's responsible for everthing to be perfect and on time - should obviously get something that she can spend for self...Last but not the least the biggest quest who is gonna pay her for valuable contribution in each and everyone's lives of family members!!!!!!!!!!!!

In a family, nobody gets a compensation everything is for the greater good of the family. Decisions have to be taken based on consensus( donot forget the Kids power) and no amount of dissonance should be allowed and donot forget the tax authorities, the moment compensation is discussed they are onto it.
In case compensation is discussed, is the wife to be paid by the husband ? if so who is the master? And is she serving only the master?

Well i feel it all depends upon the mutual relations that exist among the family members. Paying the housewife, does not mean that there is a master servant relation between the two.

Well the idea behind paying the housewives is totally wrong. What are you going to pay housewife? Money? If you really want to pay for their sacrifice and duty then you should give them respect, love and some time for them. This will be all for them. They are the ones who take care of home and family.
