Reassessing Motherhood and Workforce Dynamics

This chapter critically examines the tensions between 'pro-life feminism' and women's participation in the workforce, unraveling the inherent contradictions in societal attitudes toward motherhood. It highlights the historical context of maternal roles and the evolving perceptions of motherhood, arguing for a more supportive framework that recognizes the value of both family and career. The discussion lays bare the need for a holistic approach to integrate motherhood into modern professional life, challenging the prevailing notion that career success must come at the expense of family commitment.
