Was chatting to my sister and was talking about how my MIL is a housewife (sorry not sure if that’s the correct term). She said that being a SAHM/housewife is no different to someone claiming benefits and would rather claim benefits than rely on someone for an income!
Bearing in mind, FIL runs a very successful business and all of the money MIL receives is from private funds - not through the state.
Am i being reasonable to think being a SAHM/housewife isn’t the same as claiming benefits?
