Do some wives not have the discipline to be stay-at-home and need to work outside the home in order to acquire discipline/diligence?
I know there are mothers who do not have the discipline to homeschool.

Not all mothers are meant to stay-at-home. It all depends on what she wants and can do.

If she has small children, she'll be kept busy whether she wants to be or not.

Maybe working-from-home could be a good option for a housewife who finds she has too much idle time on her hands. Whether that's running some kind of home business, or simply doing a remote job from the computer, etc.

A large, large number of office jobs are now permanently work from home. So it's possible.

Do lazy husbands get a free pass, or what? ;)

This thread seems kind of fishy. Kind of like if I said:


Quote
Should lazy stay-at-home wives work, or should those lazy wives continue to sit at home and eat bon-bons? Because all those lazy wives sitting on their cans all day need to be more productive, right?

In Logic, that is called "begging the question" or perhaps "baseless assertion".
The OP presumes lazy wives are "a thing" right off the bat, and proceeds to discuss what can best be done about them.
Or better yet, to use a practical example from 2021:

Quote
"What is to be done about Man-caused Catastrophic Climate Change? Some say we don't need to do anything, that there is nothing we can do. Others think the world should be reset to a more eco-friendly mode of existence. Still others think we must make gradual changes to our lifestyle to save the earth. In conclusion, there are many sides in the great debate on what to do about Man-caused Catastrophic Climate Change."

Note the problem with the above quote? It presumes that Man-caused Catastrophic Climate Change is a thing.
