Do working mothers harm their children's development?

As working ladies are too busy in their professional lives and hardly pay enough attention toward their children. Does it really harm their children's development?

hi
never they use to harm the development of the kids
instead they can visualise the life of human being to the kids
but take more time with them than other working parents
present ur active love to them
describe them that u r working to their and the good future of the family
in the way suitable to their minds

UB..

I don't think so ... It all depends on quality time spent with kids rather than quantity..

Kids will be more independent and its good for women's self esteem too..

But we must ensure that children remain our priority.. Choosing career over them is not right..

Balancing both is difficult but a lot of women do it..

Re: Do working mothers harm their children's development?

My friend, the word mother and harm do not go along. A mother, working or otherwise, can never harm her child. Know the Sanskrit saying - Kuputro bhavati, kumata na bhavati (meaning - there can be a bad son, but never a bad mother).
Most working women have experimented and mastered their own ways of dealing with stressors. Also, majority of women work not because they are career-minded but because they can lend a helping hand financially as well as secure their own future in case of adversities.
A generic question of whether working mothers harm children is too vague, would you like to substantiate your qt with an example?

Aparna I liked your quote...

But I have come across so many working mothers who feel very guilty... especially people who have demanding jobs that involves travel and to some extent the child also makes you feel guilty....

As you rightly said it depends on the individual .. how she plans and organizes her schedule...

Working is especially good for a woman's self esteem....

Re: Do working mothers harm their children's development?

I am professional mother with 2 kids(6yrs&2yrs) and husband with no parents support here in london, sometime my heart cries when I leave my kids to their school and full time nursery but then i spend my full time before 9am and after 4.30pm with my kids and husband. We have moved close to my office so that I don't waste time in travelling and i have more time for family and its easy for me to manage everything being close to work.

Being professional it helps me to balance between work/life and manage my family more effectively and in better way and my work gives me more confidence to overcome any hurdles of life.

Most weekend we take our kids for outtings and spend quality time with them.

I appreciate those mothers who still take care of kids/family being at home..

Everyone has their own choice in life... try to enjoy it..

Thanks
Beena
