Summary: In class this week we read "Working Mothers Are Benefiting the Family" by Supreet Mann. In this essay she argues how she thinks that working mothers help their family more than hinder. She explained how when a mother works it doesn't only bring an extra income into the families house hold but it also sets an example for their children. when a mother works it can set a good worth ethic for their children. she points out that people say that when a mother works it leads to divorces and likelihood of cheating, but Mann makes a good point that people don't cheat and get divorced because of both parents are working, but because they have deep-seated problems that happen over time,

conclusion: I would definitely have to agree with Supreet Mann she makes many good points and arguments. I don't think a working mother can harm the family, but if anything make the family more stable and make the families financial situation more stable. I find it crazy that people will go to blaming divorce and cheating on working mother- rather than just seeing that there is actually problems in the relationship like maybe the couple just don't connect like they use to. I also do agree with Mann on that working mothers can set a good worth ethic. I think if mothers work it can influence their daughter(s) because it shows them that women can also work and accomplish just as much if not more than a man. I also think that working mothers show their kids that their  isn't a "gender roll" anymore and that the mom and dad need to contribute in every aspect in the house hold.
