- Abstract:
- Women‟s role in the community and at home have been changing rapidly. Traditionally, men and women had well-defined roles without much overlapping or trespassing- mostly women were confined to home – their primary was „mother‟ and „care-taker‟. But, women‟s rights, education, and gender equality has changed the scenario. Pursuance of quality life, better living standard, cost of living has compelled women to become economic contributors of the home. However, not much significant changes have been observed in gender roles. The question is whether women are satisfied about their role as mother or care-taker. The objective of the study is to explore the difference in the perceived satisfaction in fulfilling the role as a mother and satisfaction in life between working mothers and non-working mothers.
