Home-Maker need Help! In Quarantine make yourself useful for all the ladies of the house.
With our Prime Minister announcing an extension to the lock-down till 3rd May, the home-makers are tensed and over worked. With everyone at home, their workload has been majorly increased. While most of you enjoy your days doing nothing, with no schools/colleges or shops to look after, there’s no free time for the housewives who managed to steal a few hours for themselves before. Keeping the extended lockdown in mind, they are dreading the next weeks, not because of the threat of COVID-19 but rather because of all the extra work that they alone have to bear at home! All those of you who have reaped the benefits of lunches and dinners being served and your homes being cleaned, it’s time for you to give the home makers something in return. Quarantine can be used to use your free time doing something worthy for those women who have been making your life easy for all these years.
Help them with cleaning:
Cleaning your homes is a major task, especially when everyone is at home all the time, increasing the mess and dirt. Everyone at home can divide duties to clean the house, and take care to avoid making any unnecessary mess around them. Keep your own rooms clean, minimize the mess in the living room and take your assigned cleaning duty seriously!
Help them in the kitchen:
Cooking is a basic skill that each and every individual should learn. Fortunately for you, you have enough time on your hands to learn and experiment. Help out your moms and wives in the kitchen by assisting them in cooking, making dishes for them and relieving them from their extended work load. But keep in mind to not make a mess in the kitchen and add on to their work instead of helping them reduce it!
Give them time to relax:
When you all have received time to relax from your daily hectic life, it is only fair that the home makers get it too. Make sure that they also have free time, take up their extra duties, be it something as simple as folding laundry, help them out with it. It is important that they do not feel stressed or frustrated and for that they need to have time to themselves and not feel overwhelmed with all the house work.
Encourage them to explore their hobbies too:
Quarantine is a period where everyone has enough time with them to start doing what they love, to explore their hobbies and interests and do stuff that they really wanted to but never had time to do before. Hence it’s only fair that the home makers of the house get it too. Encourage them to follow their hobbies, support them when they express their interests. They make quarantining easy for you so return the favor!
Simply have a nice chat:
It is understandable that with the kind of schedules most people have, it is frankly quite difficult to just sit and talk with people who are living in the same house as you. As major as the threat to mankind COVID-19 has posed, one thing it has done is brought people closer. Home makers who used stay at home most of the time before the COVID-19 crisis probably used to miss having the family members around to talk. So here’s the time, talk to each other, tell them about yourself, catch up with things that you probably missed with time and simply have a nice pleasant chat which would help in reducing stress for them and you too.
