The Washington Post had an op-ed piece in Sunday’s paper (May 30) entitled “5 Myths About Working Mother.”
1. Mothers today spend much less time caring for children than did their parents and grandparents.
2. Women’s jobs interfere with family life more than men’s.
3. Mothers with college degrees are more likely than other women to opt out of the workforce.
4. Women who work are less likely to have successful marriages.
5. Parents don’t experience discrimination in the workplace.
Current numbers show that close to two-thirds of women with kids under the age of 18 are working outside the home. And we know that a lot more of us are working from home with children.
Food for thought!
Until next time,
Sarah
