Role of women in the society (family)

Women are the pioneers of the society and every family. Behind every successful man is a woman, same goes to family and the society at large. Women play more than eighty percent roles in the society. Any society or family without woman is dead .

Starting from the family which is the primary or the basic. Women play a vital roles in the family. As a young woman, she is expected to do the house chores which includes the cooking, the cleaning washing and so on. It is not pleasant to see the male child or children doing those things in the family while the female ones sites and watch them. It's against the African culture. So those house chores are meant for mother and the grown up girls are to take over from her while the males are to join the father.

Then the wife, whom is said to be the man's helpmate but most times more than that because that the man stands or fail is the woman. She sacrifices her personal feelings and needs to maintain peace and order in the house. She builds a home by standing by the man in every circumstances whether poor rich she is there for him. She is expected to be submissive to the husband in every situation on ground and she is the only one the man can turn to even when things are bad. In many occasions I have seen men who live a careless life with his wealth but when things turned bad those irresponsible friends ran away and the the wife has no choice than to take the responsibility. The most cases of the matter is that they only turn to the wife when money got finished or when they are critically ill. The wife are expected to smile even in pains but the husband always turn to the for love, care, consolation even sometimes for protections lols.

As a mother, they are the mirror of the family. The provides standers for morality in the family, that is why they said if a child is good he becomes the father's but when a child exhibits bad moral he belongs to the mother. She can be different personalities in the family. First, a helper. Second a mother which gives birth to others, like; a teacher which includes teaching the children good morales, helping them out with their assignment if educated and so on. They can be nurse or doctor, always caring about the family health, what they eat or drink even some in the village base on the native medications which most times work when it is a minor health challenge like malaria. I remember those days when my mother always enter farm and fetch some leaves cook them, which we will drink and bath with it for two occasions daily and will be free in tow day from anything called malaria.
Mothers can also be called lawyers because they are ever ready to defend their family to any extent you may not imagine both physically and spiritually (in prayers).
Women are the pioneers of the society because charity they said begins at home. When the children are well trained they brings good impact in the society while the untrained ones bring bad omens to the society. Kudos to every woman in the society.
