The major problems a working_mother faces concern her children. She must either find a reliable person who will be loving toward the children or a good day-care center where the children must take special arrangements for the child be cared for at home, or she must stay home from work. While at work, the mother may worry about her children. She may wonder if they are safe, if they are learning the values she wants them to have, and if her absence is hurting them emotionally. She may also regret not being able to make them to after- school activities or participate in family activities with them.
