CEO= Chief Executive Officer holds the highest position in an organisation, and earns the biggest salary. He is to keep the team together, be productive, maintain standards and discipline! A house wife's role is no less in any way but is treated as less or called 'woman of leisure'. Totally untrue!! It is high time this post is given proper recognition, value and respect!!

confronted by doubts middle of night, she sat upright, worry filled life, a stressed house wife. pressure to keep her man happy, change tots nappy, send child to school, let in-laws rule! a CEO job she does well, but when doubts dwell she stays awake, for their love’s sake! 1st placement Written 25/07/21 12 lines in rhyme poetry contest Joseph May sponsored 8444,8444,8444 PS counter 12 lines with aabb, ccdd, eeff rhyme rhyme checked at rhyme zone

Thanks Sam! Yes, my mother was a housewife who was marries you g when only 18 and she has been the power and force behind my success! Not a day goes by without me thanking and acknowledging the huge contribution she made to all our lives! Yes, world should officially declare housewife as a job with all the protection and benefits.
