Natalie is thinking about what it would be like to be a mother. Considering what you have learned from the text, which of the following would you tell her?
a) Mothers, as compared to fathers, do the majority of socialization, hands-on
care, and emotional work, but fathers do the majority of discipline and
management.
b) Among mothers and fathers who work full-time, mothers are more involved in
childcare than are fathers when the children are preschool-age, but this
difference disappears by the time children are about age 6.
c) Employed mothers spend about 17 hours a week engaged with their children,
as compared to about 52 hours a week for mothers who do not work outside
the home.
d) Many employed mothers feel guilty about the time they spend at work,
although they are engaged with their children only a few hours less per week
than are nonemployed mothers.
e) Mothers are more likely than fathers to report that they are well-rested.
