Yesterday on the Dennis Prager Happiness Hour, he asked this question, “If you have college age children and older, looking back on how you raised them, do you have any regrets?” It was fascinating listening to those who called in. By far the majority said that the women were happy that they were home full time to raise their own children. One man said he wanted his wife to work but she insisted on being home to raise their own…
Written By Karen Sargent in No Greater Joy Magazine I read an article yesterday that should be required reading for every parent. It was written by a young mom, Sloane (not her real name). She works with an organization called Bark, whose sole purpose is to protect children from online predators. Her story is chilling. In the article, she recounts a typical day in her work with Bark. They start with a photo of Sloane wearing clothing a pre-teen would…
My mom didn’t fear germs at all. She feared toxic chemicals. She learned that a strong immune system is the best defense against germs and the diseases that result from them. So I grew up believing the same thing. I didn’t get the ordinary illnesses (colds and flu) much until I began having grandchildren. If they had a cold, I would get it, and it would be much worse than the others due to my weakened immune system because of…
“The prescribed cure for the problem with no name was for women to go to work and begin having more abortions. Politicians obliged with the demanded policies, and companies began to accommodate. So today, married couples both work. Their children are in day care from the time they are infants – at a huge cost in both money and family cohesiveness, and the couples hope the nursery will care for them safely and properly. “The two salaries together equal about…
Someone wrote “Children need both parents” above an article on Facebook the other day, and some women went ballistic! One woman wrote, “This is a blanket statement. There are parents whose presence hurts their children. Millstones.” Another wrote, “I can attest to the fact that kids do not need both parents. My Dad raped me. And was incarcerated in 2009. I don’t need him. He has just caused pain. My mother has provided sufficient support and love to my eight…
Fear is what motivates many women today. The sad part is that as they are trying to prepare for all of the “what ifs…?,” they are making it more difficult to ever be home full time caring for their husband, children, and home. Feminism operates through fear. Biblical womanhood operates through faith in Almighty God. Heather made this comment on my post Traditional Wives Set Feminism Back. For many years, her life operated by fear but now she walks by…
Yes, there are women who are married to messy husbands. These husbands come home from a long day at work and have no interest in doing any housework or even cleaning up after themselves. After all, they married a help meet for a reason! I know, many women don’t look at it this way, and their messy husbands drive them crazy. What are they to do? Here are a few comments left on my Facebook page by women yesterday concerning…
Written By Ken About every six to twelve months, I sense the need to try and set the record straight concerning the Alexanders. I know many of you think we should ignore the haters, which we do most often, but it just seems right to speak out every once in a while for clarity’s sake. I tweeted my first tweet the other night after getting a message from a friend that the trolls were attacking a Twitter account that they…
“Entitled husbands thinking their wife should remain inside the home as a ‘homemaker’ or ‘housewife’ leads to depression, isolation, anxiety, and more. Stop encouraging the Neanderthal concept of women should remain barefoot and pregnant and take care of their man’s needs and balance their entire family and household on her shoulders.” This was a comment left on my Facebook page. Apparently, she’s bought the feminist’s lies hook, line, and sinker. Are husbands “entitled” who want their wives to be full-time…
Someone tweeted this comment: “Biblical submission is not the same as the submission some preach. It’s not BDSM, it’s not unquestioning obedience, it’s not degrading or a lowering of the woman’s value…” I would truly like to know WHO teaches that submission is BDSM, unquestioning obedience, or that it degrades and lowers a woman’s value. The ONLY ones I could see teaching this type of submission are those who hate biblical submission and want to twist it into something ugly…
