The work done by house wife is disvaluated because people thought that house wife do not do any work.This was not true.House wife do a lot of work.The main responsibility for house work and care-giving is tasks lies with women.Yet the work that they do is not recognized as work.It is assumed that there is something that come naturally to women.Thus there are not being paid for.

The job of a housewife never ends. Housewife’s responsibility starts every day by taking care of the house, children and her husband. Her role is to ‘keep the house clean’, take care of the sick.

It is a job which has no end and the whole house depends on the housewife. People when they work outside get remuneration for it so it is evaluated in terms of money.  

If the housewife is a working lady her jobs still remain the same at home. She needs to multi-task and take care of the household. Normally the value of work is determined with amount of money one is paid for it. But in a household the women do not get ‘paid for the work’ hence it is not seen as a value.
