Women also spoke of this regret. But as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners.
有些女人也有这种悔恨,但不多(因为我照料的大多是老年一代,那一代人还少有女人来挣钱养家的)。I had been a housewife and mother for 17 years. To feed my family, I had to leave my children behind and move to an American army base.
17年来,我一直是个家庭主妇和母亲,而今为了养家,不得不丢下孩子们,来到一个美军基地。A majority of men and women disapproved of the idea of a women earning money if she had a husband capable of supporting her.
不论是男性还是女性,多数都认为,如果另一半能挣钱养家,女性不应出门工作。He found it demeaning to ask his wife to support the family.
他觉得让妻子来养家餬口有损他的面子。Sure, you work to earn lots of money for them, but when was the last time with your kids, or your mom and dad, or your friends?
当然,你工作是为了赚钱养家,但上一次你与孩子舒舒服服度过了一小时是在什么时候?与你父母相伴又是在什么时候?与朋友在一起又是什么时候?Women still stay home to care for the children and cook food, while men now go out to look for jobs and look for money.
女人更留守在家中准备食物并照顾孩子,而男人现在出去找工作找钱为了养家。Just a few decades ago, people had low expectations and worked hard to make living.
就在几十年前,人们没有什么高的期望并且努力工作以养家。A man can not be removed from the woman will not be impossible to set up a stall set up to make a little hard to support their families.
一个可以不被男人剔除的女人不可能不会摆摊设点赚一点辛苦钱养家。Those buying house are salesmen. Fixed income of staffs in the office is only adequate to support family and can be rich.
买房的,多数是做销售的,办公室人员的固定收入,只能养家,不能发达。
