A ROUTINE JUGGLING ACT: MANAGING CHILD CARE AND EMPLOYMENT
Rising labor force participation among mothers of young children since the 1970s and the passage of strict work requirements for welfare recipients in 1996 have increased scholarly attention to the challenge of balancing the often conflicting demands of work and family. This challenge may be particularly acute for mothers at the lower end of the socio-economic spectrum, who are more likely to be single and more likely to work non-standard hours or weekends than middle- or upper-class mothers.
