The game makes it seem like it is better to have house wives return to work, instead of staying home "unproductive."

I would suggest that the housewife number is a positive in several ways.
1) It indicates that the husband is working in a job that can support her staying at home.
(So she should not be drawing benefits from the government, such as unemployment or disability.)

2) It indicates that the family unit is intact, so crime rates should be positively affected, and the need for police diminished, a 2 fold benefit.

3) The house wife can increase the education of the population in 3 ways:
Reduced truancy, reduced drop out rate, and more 1 on 1 teaching.
This should lead to more students going on to high school, university, and advanced degrees.

4) Reduced need for child care, so freeing up more low level workers for other jobs, or to become house wives themselves.
