Sloth

I visited a house where the stay at home mum doesn't clean or tidy up. I don't know what she does with all her time at home not working, but her small flat is a pig sty.

You walk in to find clothes, shoes and house hold items, large and small, all over the floor, coffee tables, couches. There is literally nowhere to sit! Entering the kitchen there is a giant pile of clothes in the kitchenette and dirty dishes covering every inch of bench space and piled up in the sink. The other rooms are much the same.

How someone lives their life is their deal, it doesn't affect me directly and has no bearing on my life. Although is has every affect and bearing on her daughter's life.

This lady had a baby, then a toddler, then a small girl who will grow into a teen, then adult, living in this filthy environment. What does living like this teach that little girl? Not to mention the danger such an environment poses. The little girl could put something in her mouth and choke, not to mention the germs and so forth.

As an adult you re free to live your life how you choose. As a parent you HAVE to think about how your lifestyle choices affect your children. It is not good enough to have children and live in whatever sty you like. You need to make good and decent adult choices... or perhaps think about whether you're really ready to be a parent.
