In today’s society, many women feel the need fo enter the workforce. As less and less couples choose
to get married, and less women have children, the role of homemaker has become less respected.
Some mothers are even criticized for choosing to stay home; saying that they are “wasting” their talents
and educations by not working. Women often feel an expectation to hold high-paying jobs, in order to prove
they are as capable as men. But no professional success can compensate for failure in the home, and good mothers
are still desperately needed.
