ACTIVITY 1II

Write a passage on the
disadvantage of a working
mother.


Mothers should be strongly discouraged from working
outside the home.
First, women have traditional roles as housewives and
housekeepers. They should stay at home, doing
housework and looking after their husbands and
children. In extended families where more than two
generations live together, women are also the main
caregivers for elderly people.
Second, working mothers do not have enough time.
Men’s work finishes at the office, but women‘s work is
extended to their households. After an eight-hour
working day, these exhausted women have to do
household chores, take care of their husbands and

children without having any time to relax.
Finally, working mothers cannot be good workers. Tiring
and boring chores at home negatively affect women’s
tasks in their working place. They cannot concentrate or
work as effectively as those who do not have to worry
about taking kids to school, picking them up after school
