No more Messy Almirah

Tv channels are flashing news  about the weather forecast stating that cyclone is going to hit Tamilnadu. Everyone is Talking about this news. As Tamilnadu is suffering with water scarcity and  people are longing eagerly for the rains to pour in.

The Sky looked unusual masking the scorching sun with the dark clouds. Cloudy Sunday morning makes me bit lazy. so  I asked my Chellakutty to bring the clothes that i let to dry in the terrace.
He ran up the stairs and picked up the washed clothes. He returned down with all the clothes neatly folded.

I was super excited seeing his perfection. the nmy sweet darling boy has took the task of folding the clothes and arranged the messed up almirah into a neat and tidy wardrobe. 

Meanwhile i had done other work. Sundays are not just Sundays anymore with smart sons around… Now its SON Days. TIme to teach some household Chores to our Sons. Sons were now taught how to do  the house chores like we have taught to our daughters.  Ariel has brought the change in many through the wonderful videos.

Earlier Laundry has been considered has womens job. But now things has been changed a lot. Men too started to realize the workload of  woman  indoors & outdoors.

Not only that, we have started to teach our sons to share the load at home. Why should girls / women have struggle with all the burden? So mothers started to train up their Laadli sons to share the household Chores like floor cleaning, Mopping, Laundry, arranging the cupboards/ almirah, watering the plants, arranging the bedding, Washing up Shoes, Cleaning the utensils etc.

Sharing the work gives more happiness then just sitting idle and the watching Tv. Moreover it is good for health as Children in this generation is not at playing any outdoor games. Most of the time spent in front of either watching Tv or playing Games in mobile or laptop.

This type of activity gives them a satisfaction that they are taking a part in helping their mothers and one can be a proud son.

Some of his friends who saw him mopping the floor has starting pulling his legs by saying that “Are you a Girl to do all this work? My mom / sister does this kind of work in my home?” This made my Chellakutty upset. Then I told my chellakutty not to feel shame for doing household chores and  showed the Ariel Video explaining that you should be proud that you are helping your mamma in the household work and also scoring well in studies and other activities. You are not letting your mom / sister struggle the whole day washing & cleaning. So, you be what you are. Dont worry about their comments. They too will follow you soon. I am proud of you son so be proud for sharing the load of your Mom.

He loves to do these household chores earlier also but he thought it was woman job as in all his friends house only woman/ girls are doing this task and says its a womans Job. now he realized completely that happiness comes out of sharing and it is no more  a womans job…  Sweet kisses to my sweet little chellakutty and he got his Favourite Gulabjamun for saving my time.

Lets bring the Change from home.... Time to change....
