In
this
day and age, the number of full-time housekeeping
mothers
is constantly growing. Some believe
governments
should pay them salaries. In my opinion,
however
, I disagree with
this
idea due to the potential social implications and the increase in financial burden on authorities.
This
essay will analyze these factors, using examples from the UK government and Stanford University to prove my arguments.
On the one hand, full-time housekeeping
mothers
seem to need financial support from
governments
. The reason behind
this
is twofold.
Firstly
, they look after their
families
at the cost of being unemployed and giving up income resources.
In addition
, the expenditure on raising children is rather high, especially during the period when children were very young and cannot take care of themselves.
Therefore
, some of these
mothers
might confront financial difficulties without support from the state.
That being said, it is unreasonable for authorities to pay housing
mothers
wages. The primary reason is
this
measure would be unfair to the dual income
families
and in turn, have a negative effect on society.
That is
because some working
mothers
might feel upset and quit their jobs

if they could not get subsidies from
governments
merely because they have a job. In fact, recent research from the UK government shows that the unemployed rate in countries which can offer relatively greater amounts of maternity subsidy is clearly higher than that in other countries.
Therefore
, it is possible that people might prefer to be unemployed if
governments
provided them with salaries for full-time keeping housing and
this
will lead to a brain drain in society.
Another reason is that
such
governmental support would pose a heavy financial burden on
governments
, leading to budget cuts for other social systems. A study from Stanford University shows that in the US there are around half a million new full-time housekeeping
mothers
increasing each year.
This
would cost authorities a fortune once they decided to pay these

salaries.
Consequently
, the budget for other social aspects
such
as medical, educational and transport systems will inevitably be cut down.
To conclude,
although
full-time housing
mothers
may need temporary financial help to overcome their difficulties in raising
families
, claiming that they should receive a salary from the government may not be a wise option, as it will cause so many multiple negative social implications. I personally think that being unemployed to better look after
families
is merely a personal choice.
Thus
people should be responsible for their own and, while responsibility should not fall on
governments
.
