removed much of the responsibility for child rearing that used to fall to mothers.
However, these facilities come at a cost and often require two salaries coming into a
family to be afforded.
I do not believe that the increase in the number of working mothers has resulted in
children being brought up less well than previously. Indeed it could be argued that by
giving mothers the opportunity to work and earn extra money children can be better
provided for than previously. There is more money for luxuries and holidays and a
more secure family life is possible. Of course there are limits as to the amount of time
that ideally should be spent away from home and the ideal scenario would be for one
of the parents (often the wife) to have a part-time job and thus be available for their
children before and after school. It is important to establish the correct balance
between family life and working life.
