In order to spend more time with her family, Kelly is considering leaving her full-time job to begin working part-time. What advice would you give to Kelly as she makes her decision?

What will be an ideal response?


Although the creation of more and better part-time jobs would help alleviate the overload experienced by full-time working mothers, there are drawbacks. Part-time work reduces the economic contribution to the family in less hours and pay standards. It is also assumed that part-time employees are less committed. Therefore, part-time work seldom offers fringe benefits.
