Psychology 8.2 chapter 12 free write

Work and family roles:
Todays society almost requires a 2 incomes household to make it, this is just surviving not being able to save money. This situation is very stressful and a lot of woman have opted to leave the work force and stay home with their children.
When you have both parents working the family roles are usually shared by both parents in an effort to have time to spend with each other and their children. Sharing the house responsibilities also relieves a lot of stress from the woman who in her opinion is responsible for keeping the house together. Men are now more than ever helping out and most of the woman are very appreciative of this stress relief.
For woman having to work with kids is very stressful because they need to find a job that works around their schedule which a lot of companies are starting to embrace and some are punishing for. Now more than ever before woman are valueing their family before their jobs. Meaning that their job needs to work around their schedule or it is not worth sacraficing family time.
