That’s because they aren’t traditional wives. They’re 1950s wives, a group of women who lived like no other generation did. Barely middle class women had maids, 6 days a week often. Those maids did the cleaning and cooking and often a lot of childcare. These women didn’t work or homeschool or homestead. They’re job was to look pretty, coddle their husbands, and entertain.

Bar keepers friend liquid , squeeze small amount, use scouring pad to work into grime, let sit then scour and should work.

How do you handle kids that ask for 5 minutes more

What state do you live in? This heat is killing me.

Its GREAT for Christian women

I love the wisdom the Lord has given you. ❤😊

Hope you are doing well now. Thank you, thank you thank you for not sugarcoating the pain of the first day. The doctor medical literature will say “ you will feel sore afterwards” you may be uncomfortable”. I am a male who “ needs” this corrective surgery but I keep going back-and-forth. Stay well.

Who watched the kids when you went to homeschool conferences with your husband? How did you keep your kids in bed after bedtime?

Thank you for this fantastic message!

Thank you! We are of the same mind.

I'm so glad you're sharing this! It is very easy to get out of control, and with 8 children, I want to get a better handle on screen time. I'm gonna go back and take notes while listening a second time. You have some great ideas here!

Thank you. God has blessed me with 8 boys. No girls. My oldest will be 14 this summer and I'm trying to look ahead so I'm not too surprised when he decided to launch.

Thank you! Would love to email with you

I’m starting homeschool for my kiddo and I am so excited your podcast changed me so much God Bless you and thank you!

This video helps me have a sigh of relief that we can get caught up!

Hi, I had a board certified plastic surgeon, but the truth is the procedure really does not live up to the hype. My stomach circumference after Lipo and tummy tuck are about the same as they were before just smoother and I am having terrible muscle spasms whenever I take off my binder, six weeks is a long time to be out of commission and I’ve missed out on alot of living. This is a very serious and complicated surgery. I’m not sure I could recommend it to anybody.

Love from a Catholic homeschooling mom of 5 from Poland

Thank you so much Amy!!!!!!! I love your focus on Jesus! I am a Catholic and we go to church every Sunday! There are some jobs that need to be done on Sunday, when you are a doctor or nurse, a fireman, policeman etc but I try not to go shopping on Sundays, I don't do the laundry, I don't deep clean the house, of course we eat and we must wash the dishes. It's a day for God and the family, friends included. I think most shops should be closed. I don' to go to the cinema then. I can go on Saturday. I don't like the idea of so many people working in entertainment and restaurants like crazy, so that I could rest. What about their rest and time with family? It's not that I never go to a National Park, where someone sells tickets. But I do that so rarely...

Thank you so much Amy! I love your videos!!! Love from Ania from Poland!!!

Dear Amy! Thank you so much!!!! I love your wisdom!!!!!! Love from Ania from Poland

Regenerative medicine docs can inject PRP(platelet rich plasma from your own blood) to potentially strengthen that. Regenexx does this with offices around the country

Ibuprofen that isnt enteric coated is a stomach destroyer. So glad the tramadol worked and im grateful for the anti nausea tip ahead of time❤❤

I love it!!! Thank you!!!

I love it Amy!!!!! Thank you so much! Love from Ania from Poland

When you said that it didn’t even feel like the pain meds were touching your pain the first day or so, did you ask for an increase in dosage or trying another opiate? Obviously people could see how much pain were and why did they not offer more? This is a huge, let’s call it a pet peeve, but is actually more of an obsessive concern to pass medical not being treated properly.

Backpacks are agoog idea

Really good tips! We have minimal space in our house for homeschool supplies, so I use a hanging organizer in the front of our closet to store our curriculum books and a hutch and buffet table in our dining room to store literally everything else! I do still have really small children, so putting a lock on our hutch would be a game changer! My two littlest children are always bringing out anything they can get their hands on 😅

Great information. We have 8 kids with 5 teenagers right now. She is right on. Learning to balance what seems like two families. The Older's and the Youngers. It can be challenging but it's necessary to keep it up with both.

Can you also share some topics for deep conversations. I am currently trying to connect with my 13 year old son. Also have screen time rules changed in your household for teenagers

My kids beg for me to play minecraft and I loathe it. Every time we play overcooked on the switch, they gang up on me and laugh. 🤣

The blackened chicken is at our Costco! It’s a regular find there. We love it here too.

do the seats recline or fold all the way?

I see you're trying to be open-minded, but God, or whoever is up there if there's some supreme force, did not create men and women to get married, be heterosexual, or even have children. No heterosexual woman is not her husband's "helper." There's no scientific evidence of those things.

This video is so great! Love it!

As always I relate so much to this. God bless you. Thank you Amy ❤

You have so much sincerity in your voice thank you

Tradwife trend has christian undertones, but I think its a pornification of Biblical women.

Thank you for addressing this!

Thanks for the sound encouragement. Reading Proverbs 31 sure gives the idea of a woman who is very active and smart and practical, right in line with your comment to jump on board your husband's mission.

I think its a tend, most families can afford for wifes to stay home, so most women work out side the home, and there nothing wrong either way. You do what best for your family.

Wonderful message, Amy! Thank you so much for sharing this!

Yes yes yes!!! We have 9 kids with one daughter married and I just got through encouraging her in this same way! Comparing yourself is so damaging, and especially to someone on the internet that is only showing the highlights of who they are. *soapbox* haha. Thank you for covering this! 😊

That’s so interesting! I had never heard of it. Thank you for being honest and real and brave enough to speak the truth. That’s badly needed these days. I can definitely relate to not loving to cook; I am the same. I think if I had more time I would enjoy it more😂 we have 8 children and homeschool.

Funny thought that always comes to me when I come across the trad wife videos and blogs (besides the general lack of children). Their "traditional" ideal is around the mid 1900s. If you actually think about wives from even 100 years prior to that (Ma Ingalls, Marmee from Little women, etc.) They really embodied a more biblical and truly traditional way of life. They kept the house, cooked and did laundry, raised the children, yes, but they also did the farm chores, protected the family, made financial decisions, alongside and sometimes in the absence of their husbands. They very naturally understood that they worked as a team with their husbands, and their actual tasks altered accordingly.
