Time Constraint of Working Mothers – A Sociological Study

Abstract

This paper highlights the working women's triple roles. First, she has to function as a wife, second as a mother and third as a worker. The question arises how efficiently can a working women function as a mother/wife at a home and a worker in the place of work. In an attempt to study these differences, the present study is carried out on children of working mothers, of different occupational categories. It intends to examine the relationship between mother's work status and family environment and its consequential effects on adjustment of their children.
