    Woman role in the American workforce has changed dramatically since the late 1900’s. World War II revolutionized societal stigmas, where men are no longer seen as the primary “breadwinners” and women as just “homemakers“. Today an increasing number of women have ignored the traditional path of getting married and having kids before 30 to seek paths that can lead to career and educational advancements.

While working parents have access to unpaid childbearing or family care, Secret (2000) found that among 343 employees, about 194 would…
