This topic is about being at home and all that goes along with that. It can include housework, a work at home job or anything else done at home. It can also include interactions with family.
Someone could definitely learn to get along better with family. That would improve anyone’s home life a great deal. Remodeling of the home might also help.
I am a homemaker myself so have a lot of experience here. I think having a relatively clean house and happy family makes home life better. Communication and working together are crucial. Without these things there can’t be domestic harmony.
