Home Improvement

One thing that really surprised me in this weeks lesson was the development of the family and work. In the beginning, families worked together for their resources. The fathers would work in the field, the mothers and children would do the house work and other chores. Then after the industrial revolution, the men left the home to work, then the children followed, leaving the mothers at home alone. The children were then sent to school for 6 hours, keeping them away from time they would spent with their families. The women then had the need for work. Each one of these events changed the way the amount of time we spend with our families. I truly believe that the family is the most important thing we must take care of. if we are not spending time with the people that matter most, we are wasting opportunities to learn and grow. We become the person we are today because of the experiences we had with our families. Instead of being workaholics, or being too involved in our hobbies, we should make time to spend with our families. Not just by having fun but by working together as a family.
