Moms breadwinner in 40% of homes

[janine]

Article is interesting in the contradictious society has in reacting to this trend. On one hand those polled like the economic security working moms bring, but also think it hurts kids and marriages. No wonder working moms are torn so many ways (and not just physically). I also wonder when the corporate world will catch up to these numbers and adjust their expectations (not of productivity but on how assumptions are made about working moms' productivity). Now I know some will say dads are working parents too, but as this article points out, the negative perceptions do not carry over to dads who work.

This includes single parent homes were mom is the only breadwinner. Which is also a rising number of households.
