Nina has been a responsible and hard-working person since childhood. She always helped her parents around the house, cooked dinners, and even made some money. At the same time, she studied well, and even managed to communicate with friends. Did this woman know that her capacity for work would be so impudently used?
Nina lives in a small village, she is married and has two children. Svetochka is only 5 years old, she goes to kindergarten, Alyosha is already 13, he is a schoolboy, goes in for sports. Nina herself has to raise a family consisting of two children, an unemployed husband and a retired mother. Recently Svetochka drew the whole family, and drew my mother in the form of a horse. Nina really feels like a horse, immortal, tortured, carrying all life's hardships and problems.
Nina's husband has not worked for 3 years. No, he used to work, received a very good salary. That is why the couple decided to have their second child. After all, so much money is spent on children now. And then there was enough for everything, you could not strain too much. Then my husband got very sick, went on sick leave, and then quit. After he has recovered, he never comes out to work. He, apparently, got used to lying on the sofa and doing nothing. You can't even drive out to work with a stick!
Nina's mom is young, but has already retired. She believes that she has already worked, and is on a well-deserved rest, has the right. She, of course, occasionally allocates a small amount of money for living. But this is really a penny. A lot of money is spent on children. After all, they need to be fed, clothed, put on shoes, paid for kindergarten, school lunches. Every day you have to spend money on them. They need fruits, juices, meat dishes - growing organisms!
Nina lives in a small village in the far north. Of course, she gets a very good salary. She, for example, has the same as an ordinary worker in the city for six months. In principle, there is enough money, but it is very difficult for Nina to carry everything on herself. All adult family members work in other families. And Nina has to earn money herself, alone for everything, for rent, food, clothes. The husband does not work, but something is constantly breaking with him. And my mother, she has a very decent pension, but she gives very little from her to Nina, it is not clear what she spends everything else on!
Nina no longer dreamed of a vacation at the sea or buying a fur coat. She forgot what jewelry and expensive cosmetics are, and, in principle, she can live well without it. But you can't do that. She's a woman, not a horse!
At home there are freeloaders who are just waiting for Nina to come home from work and bring something to eat. It’s good that at least they help with the housework, otherwise Nina would have “scrambled” at all!
Here recently, Nina's husband was offered a part-time job. Temporarily true, but the job is easy and paid. So the man directly told his wife that he did not want to work. And she wants, right? And my mother is still young, she could go somewhere to work. But she doesn't want, she says, she has enough money, and she worked in due time, that's enough.
Then Alyoshka gave out, at least laugh, at least cry. He says that he knows what he will do when he grows up. To Nina's questioning look, he replied that he would, like dad, lie on the couch and do nothing! Dad shows a worthy example, of course.
That's how they live. Nina plows like a horse. And everyone is sitting at home, warm, and just waiting for the mother to come home from work, bring something to eat. They love her, they say!
What do you think about this situation? It is clear that Nina's husband and mother are behaving more than wrong. But, what is the way out for a woman, what advice can she give?
