SHOULD HUSBANDS DO HoUsEWoRK!

!. Husbands must accept the
fact that housework is no longer
"woman's work" but ''our" work.
Wives can no longer be considered
unpaid, overworked servants In the
house, but co-owners in a going
concern.
Z. You cannot grade a father by
a check list Of things he does or
doesn't do. Dr.. NJ. Robert Com
berg, executive director OF the
Jewish Family Service, points out
that many a husband does little
around home. and the family
knows he is in there pitching for
it, providing the full measure of
security it needs. Others can do a
great deal, and the family won't
really be certain he is with it.
:. The actual amount of work
man does should depend ON indi-
yidual circumstances. II the chores
are too much for the woman for
any reason, obviously he must
assume a larger share. If This health
or job permits little participation.
she should shoulder most. If both
share in the breadwinning. they
should divide the chores as equally
as possible.

Fink, New York psychotherapist
and member Of the American Psy-
Geological Association:
There are wives who spend
much Of their time in outside activ-
titles. get home late. give the fur
niture d quick dab and toss q
couple of hamburgers on the grill
Then they expect their husbands
TODD the work at night they should
have completed during the day"
There IS another type Of goof-of
wife, DR.. Ellis points out. who let's
hubby carry the ball because she
feels insecure and wants to be
adored. Says Dr.. Ellis: ''She wants
to feel. Oh. hen do anything for
me. She actually IS trying to prove
to herself that she's Worthwhile
and especially valuable. =

DR. FINK, however. also sees signs
of weakness IN a man who does too
much. There are many men who
knock themselves out trying to do
everything" he says. Their an
out effort reveals a feeling Of M
security about their ability to hold
their wives. They try to win re-
spect by being immeasirably help
full. but they become merely slaves.
Their wives dominate them and
they lose the very respect they are
trying to earn"
Is there an answer? Authorities
