A Woman’s role vs. Man’s role In the average punjabi-sikh family, the woman has more duties/responsibilities than the man. For example… • She works 8 -12 hour shift, and works another shift for the family (making food, cleaning, washing dishes, etc. ) • She rarely gets recognized for her hard work. • She has such strength that she keeps going, not thinking once about herself, or her goals in life. • She is devoted to her family’s needs, and always provides for the family, not leaving them un-satisfied. • She bears the larger family politics, gets abused from other family members, taunted, etc. • What does she get in return? Society doesn’t think highly of her, because she’s a woman.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? PIC

YOU CAN… • For once, appreciate what she does for you and your family. • If she can come home can do house work, you can also do it, this counts everyone including the kids. • Tell her thanks for all that she does for you once in a while, even better if you buy her a gift. • Talk to her about her hope/goals for the future. • Defend her in situations where she can’t in the family. • Don’t complain about the work she does, rather help her do it better. • More HELP she can get the better, whether it be chores around the house, managing kids, or anything else, it all depends on your family situation. ** A family that works together, stays together. **
