First responce: Cassie Welch, K. J. (2012). (2nd ed.). S.l.: Prentice Hall. Second responce: Thrid responce: fourth responce: Hello everyone, This week is about women in the work force. Women and their right to work has grown so much in the past years and decades. “Today, women make up nearly half of our workforce, and many women are the primary breadwinners for their families. In fact, more than 75 percent of single mothers are the sole provider for their family. The increased number of women in the labor force has both reflected and contributed to a major social transformation over the past several decades. Women’s notable progress over the years is reflected in their increased educational attainment, higher earnings, greater occupational diversity, and a larger presence in leadership positions and entrepreneurial fields.” (USDL). I am glad to see numbers up for this due to the fact that more families in the modern day are broken up families and have single parents. Some questions that need to be answered are such: How has your family changed over the past 3 generations in regard to women’s involvement in the workforce? My family honestly hasn’t changed that much due to the work force changing. My great grandmother always worked hard and passed that on to my grandma. My mom was a single mom so she worked while I was watched by my grandma or at a daycare. What female family members worked or are working outside the home? My great grandma, my grandma, and my mom all worked inside
and out. My grandma worked in a home business while my mom worked outside the home. Each taught me that you work hard to get where you want to be. How is that different from the workforce involvement of current female family members? It is not different. As a result, how has childcare and housework changed in your family? In my case nothing changed because it is what I grew up with and was accustomed too. I never saw a woman in my family not work hard to better herself or her family. With numbers such as so rising programs are being made to help families and single moms, married women and so on with things in their life. There are non-profit organizations today as well. Everything that is done will help children and their future. Duke actually made a program for things like this. “The Center for Child and Family Policy officially opened on July 1, 1999, guided by Bill Chafe’s broad and bold charge: “Make a difference!” Today the Center does just that, with more than $7 million in yearly grant funding, 70 employees and more than 40 affiliated faculty fellows. Faculty and staff work together to discover and evaluate strategies for improving children’s lives, and to share their discoveries with policymakers and public agencies.” ( duke).
