Mothers With Children And Children

I can hear some moms already groaning. Time is a scarce resource for many moms. In the course of any given day, I keep wishing for more hours. However, every one of us has been given the same number of hours. It’s up to you to organize and prioritize your activities for maximum success.

All mothers have the protective instinct for their children. So what happens if they have a baby then go back on the job and ended wanting to leave completely, they will not be able to leave until their contract is fully done and completed if they do not fulfill the contract they will be sent to court martial. So I leave that women should stay at home with their children because they can handle it way more than men can. Don’t get me wrong some men take care of their kids great but it’s better for a mom to stay home with them and make sure absolute everything is going okay and won’t have to stress about it as much when you are away from them.

Roughly four-in-ten mothers say they have taken a significant amount of time off from work (39%) or reduced their work hours (42%) to care for a child or other family member. Roughly a quarter (27%) say they have quit work altogether to take care of these familial responsibilities...(Patten, 2015 [see figure 3]).

Women tend to spend more time doing unpaid work than men such as being home taking care of kids, housework, preparing for food and also taking care of the elders. About 70 per cent of women with children have done double duties (going to paid work and then coming home doing some housework too). A lot of women tend

The “Mommy Track” is the idea of a mother putting her career on hold or taking less time for work in order to make more time for her family. The debate over the “Mommy Track” is, is it really worth it? Are there benefiting to a mother pumping the breaks on her career or do the risks outweigh the benefits? The answer to this question depends on who you ask. Some say that a mother taking a break in her career stops her dead in her tracks and leaves her no room when she wishes to return to her career. However, others see many benefits that can come of a mother taking a break to spend the extra time with her family. In addition, much more supplementary research needs to be conducted in order to reach a clear conclusion regarding the Mommy Track.

All the work it takes to weave a loom only to unravel it at night acts as a full time job. With all this work it is hard to balance a full time job with loving and nurturing a child. Being overwhelmed after a long day at work and when you get home later at night sometimes you don’t have the energy to do anything. Feet are sore, legs are tired, and all you want to crawl up in your bed. “There was no time for a movie in the evening or bowling.

Making the decision to stay at home with your kids or join the workforce can be a difficult process. Many stay at home moms don’t have a reliable babysitter, so they decide to stay at home and save the extra money spent on daycare. While moms that are facing financial circumstances have no choice but to join the workforce and enroll their little ones in daycare. Lets face it, most of us moms would love to stay home and raise our children until they're old enough to be sent to school, but unfortunately that is not the case for every mom out there. The choice of being a stay at home mom versus a working mom has both it’s pros and cons. Stay at home moms are often frown upon and underestimating the hard work that goes into it. While the working mother is viewed as ambitious and driven to leave their children to bring home a paycheck. However both these women play an important role in the family and the decisions they make can affect their babies and their family, but it can either be a positive or a negative affect as well.

Although women’s equality is important here in the United States, women not men are expected to take care of their children no matter what. According to Paulette Light, co-founder of MomStamp (2013), 43 percent of woman who are highly educated and qualified for amazing careers

According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, mothers who return to work soon after the birth of a child are more likely to become depressed and are less healthy than mothers who do not, and one third of mothers end up in debt after childbirth due to having unpaid maternity leave. When a woman has access to paid leave after birth they are more

In the past 30 years, one of the most dynamic social changes in the history of the United States has taken place in the area of employment, specifically of women with children. Although, to some degree there have always been employed mothers, today a greater proportion of mothers are employed than ever before. Statistics show that in 1976, 48% of the population of women categorized as “married women with children” were employed and it increased to 62% in 1986 just 10 years later. What are the causes for this and how does it affect the children?

Women have for many years struggled with balancing the demands of home, children and work. This is especially true for young single mothers who do not have the support of family.

In most modern industrialized countries, the proportion of working mothers with children under 18 greatly increased in the last few decades of the 20th century, to the point that one-half of all mothers with children under 5 are in the workforce.

The benefits of me being a working mom, it’s was satisfying to know that my children loved me and my boss happy with me. Even though I cherished my family, I started to appreciate that the world didn’t revolve around them. Career-wise I was able to stay in the loop, stay connected with what was going on in the world. Also found satisfaction being able to get intellectual stimulation from co-workers and work projects. Even though I love my kids to bits, they can’t understand the stresses of the world. My children never understood that me working benefits us with a second income coming in, but they get to enjoy the perks of it. I found that my children learned and developed earlier and faster than being at home with me. With both my husband and I working, I found it was easier to stay in sync. He understood how hard I worked all day. He never believed that I should be the only one on kids duty after a hard day of work. When I was on the home front he never took me for granted. It took less effort to keep the spark a live in our marriage.

Women are able to contribute to society in more ways than by just being a mother. Meier, Musick, Flood & Dunifon (2016) mentions “maternal employment may provide a source of identity, self-worth, and welcome relief from daily care, potentially gener- ating greater appreciation and enjoyment in time with children” (p. 651, para. 2). Whether a mother wants to work or has to work to provide for her family, the extra income is beneficial to the child. When both parents work, it may mean that there is more disposable income which could allow for more family vacations and activities. Dual income families may also be able to afford a nicer home in a better school district. More income could also mean both parents may qualify for additional work benefits such as contributions towards 401K, medical benefits and child care tax savings. Childcare is not only beneficial for mother but for the child. Children learn social skills, have fun playing and learn from their teachers and other children. Having separation during the day can also make a child more independent and self-sufficient as they get older. Mothers who continue to work after having children will often have more career opportunities and are able to earn more money in the long run. Working moms may also teach children the importance of gender equality and show them that women can also focus on careers.

Another perk of being a working mom is that her children may be more independent. According to Robert Locke, a relationship and life improvement specialist, working moms do have more
