employment and motherhood  

Definition

  • Balancing motherhood with employment is a developmental challenge that is unique to each working mother. The experience of combining motherhood with employment is a co-coordinating process, which examines the impact of earlier and later experiences on working mothers' ability to bridge the two roles, which ultimately affects the emotional well-being of these mothers.
