Preferred term

maternal employment: risk of divorce  

Definition

  • Recent studies have suggested that Americans, including married women, work more hours today than ever before. With married women participating significantly more in the labor force, it is becoming more difficult to balance work and family responsibilities among dual-earner couples—especially in families with children under the age of 3.
