The divorce received housework compensation of 50,000 yuan, which cannot be measured by the nanny’s salary

The pay between husband and wife will not be fully contracted between the employer and the babysitter, but will incorporate more “emotional” weight.
Full-time wife gets divorced and receives 50,000 yuan as compensation for housework, is it more or less? This is a subject of constant debate in the field of public opinion these last two days.
The reason for this was that the Beijing Fangshan Court applied the new provisions of the Civil Code and concluded a divorce and housework compensation case for the first time. In this case, the full-time wife, Wang, claimed that because she had done most of the housework after the marriage, she asked for compensation for the housework. In the end, the court ruled that he divorced Chen and at the same time ordered Chen to pay Wang 50,000 yuan in compensation for housework.
It judicially recognizes the value of housework and legalizes “compensation for housework.” It can be said that this case is a practice in which the civil code increasingly protects the parties to marriage in a more humane way, and the judiciary increasingly respects the real form of the social family. Bearing in mind that a national precedent is set, it is obviously not without reference value.
However, once the case was tried, whether the 50,000 yuan award was large or small has caused considerable controversy. However, according to the court, the 50,000 yuan of housework compensation is based on the “equitable division of the common property of the husband and wife” and “the man also pays the monthly support of the man’s children.” It’s not that the woman just got the property.
Looking back, the key to igniting netizens’ emotions is if the amount of compensation is too small. But what many people overlook is that the 50,000 yuan is compensation for the party with the most obligations in the marriage, rather than the monetization of housework.
From a legal perspective, the Civil Code advocates honesty among family members, fully recognizes the efforts made by all parties to support the family, and prevents anyone’s contribution to the family from being “seen”, disappointed. or even forgotten. But the original intention of the legislation is in no way to convert the marital relationship into a purely interest or money relationship.
If according to the income standard of the local nanny, the price is set for housework for one of the parties to the marriage. When traveling, who is responsible for strategizing and formulating routes to find local food? Should they be priced according to the tour guide’s rates? When moving and shopping, who is responsible for carrying large luggage? Should it be priced according to the moving company’s loading standards?
Therefore, it is bound to be biased to use the calculation of babysitting wages to measure compensation for housework for full-time wives. The pay between husband and wife will not be fully contracted between the employer and the babysitter, but will incorporate more “emotional” weight. On this basis, understanding the 50,000 “compensation for domestic work” may be less intolerant.
This is not to say that the value of housework should be denied. With regard to complaints made on behalf of full-time wives online, and even the fear of marriage caused by this, the relevant parties should also pay attention.
In real life, some full-time housewives sacrifice themselves, reluctantly say goodbye to the workplace, and give themselves wholeheartedly to their families and children. Once their marriages undergo changes, they will not only fall into a passive situation, but will also suffer discrimination in re-employment. . To deal with these phenomena, relevant parties must pay attention to them and work hard to eliminate such concepts and create more equitable gender relations.
In addition, the significance of the sentence in this case is to activate the previous inactive clause, the compensation system for housework with the help of the Civil Code. I believe that with the continued accumulation of experience in judicial practice, judges will be more specific, reasonable and reasonable when exercising judicial discretion in the future.
In general, compensation for housework can be provided, but using a babysitter’s standards to gauge priceless love and dedication will only make more people fear marrying and killing the love bird.
