Housewife
by natashaSPQR @ 2008-06-17 - 21:56:46

I am a housewife.

Its a thought that's been going round my head for a while, but I think it's now official.

I cook, clean, wash, work... I even organise the rest of my family into action and give them a sore ear when help is not forthcoming.

Odd behaviour for a seventeen year old, you might think.

As do I.

Surely, as a (supposedly) hormonal and (definitely) taking A-levels teenager, I deserve to lie around, doing very little to help and shut myself away in my room from time to time?

Surely?

But no, it appears not.

I'm not complaining. It's just the way I have been brought up - to organise things.

Ironic really, as I'm such a horrendous decision - maker.

If I lived in the 50s, someone would probably tell me I'd make an excellent wife one day.

But if my love life in the 50s were to be anything like it is at the present time, I doubt I'd ever find out if that's true.

So I'll just have to be a career woman I suppose. Sigh.

From my conclusions of your household (which I love btw) you are not the housewife. You just have the 'older sibling' syndrome, which isn't a bad thing. It's just how it goes. It's the nature of having younger brothers and sisters.

Compare me to you. I'm the younger of the three. I'm what your sister will be in five years time. She'll still look up to you, like she does now, but she'll be more independent. And when you're twelve, you're older sister and older brother are infinitley cooler then you could ever be. You copy them. Love the things they love. Read the books they love. etc.

So when you are organising you're siblings, it's because that's the natural order. They look up to you because you are the alpha-sibling. And when you're older, it'll still be there, but they'll be more, as I said, independent.

Plus, you're just a generally very good daughter by cooking cleaning etc when not asked. Maybe I should take a lef out of your book. :P
