Besides benefits, being a working mother brings about some disadvantages.
Firstly, these mothers don’t spend enough time with children and family, which extend the distance between mothers and their children. As a result, children get freedom in excess when they don’t see mothers around to stop them from vices. This way they may fall in bad company and inculcate vices in them. Not only this, they might feel alone and find for company as mothers are not available for kids due to work.
Secondly, despite working to earn money, they still have to take care of families, which makes them even more tired and depressed with such a heavy burden. After working for 8 hours continuously in office creates fatigue and tiredness. The activeness vanishes the moment mother reaches home. But their housework’s still undone, and they are the ones who finish them. Although husband may share with their wives, but in most families, wives are still people who do all the chores.
Finally, working mothers can meet inequality in workplace, they may be paid fewer though they do the same work with men. Nowadays, harassment is a quite threatening problem in offices, which affects their work’s quality.
Clearly, mothers should consider choosing working or staying at home.
