Typical Armenian home life?

[Inna]

Typical armenian home life, from what I know of. When the husband getshome, the food is prepared and waiting to be eaten. The children may eat earlier, however they tend to eat with the rest of the family when the father comes home. The wife does the cooking and cleaning and ironing, or the females anyway. There is always fruit, tea, coffee, or karnyak to be given out.

yep, thats pretty much how my family is, except my mom also works.

it drives me insane now more than ever. I never questioned on why I had to help my mom around the house, it was just expected out of all of us(the girls). but now that my brother has grown up I expect him to help out as much as my sisters and I do but my mom or dad never force him to do anything. It's the battle of the sexes that drives me crazy It's the 21st century for goodness sake, men should contribute!

I love how you got karnyak from cognac. Hehe We have it at home as well, although I dont care for it.

Personally, I am rather fond of cleaning and cooking. I love doing both, so in that situation it wouldent bother me. But I can understand your point of view.

ArmoBarbi, I know, cognac is very strong, especially when it is direct from Armenia. The first time I ever drank (when I was 17) it was armenian cognac. I was imensly drunk. Now, for the past 2 years I dont drink at all, and if I ever come across the scent of armenian cognac I gag. Ick!

hmmm........well...depends what time you get home....if it's around five pm, then you'd probably find my mom in the kitchen, me in my room studying, my 4 year old bro in the living room watching tv, and my 13 year old bro in his room studyin....as for the what kinda music you'd hear? in our house, u hear rock music from my room, my brother's hummming as he tries to memorize his history lessons, and the cartoon network songs! as for the kitchen...you'd hear religious songs!
