Work in the Family

This week we have talked about work and it's impact on families. Working together brings a family closer together. We talked about how work has changed over the centuries. I plan to be a stay-at-home mother and cannot wait to have exciting and meaningful experiences with my children. I have made two goals regarding work in my future family. The first goal is that I will send the message to my children from a young age that it is a privilege to be able to work with mom or dad. I will make sure that there are plenty of opportunities for my children to work one-on-one with either my husband or myself. My second goal is that I will strive to never speak negatively about work. I will speak positively about it to my children so that they will think of it as a positive rather than a negative. Work is something that every person has to participate in. I think that if it is made to be enjoyable rather then a drudgery, then children will learn to love and enjoy it.
