TL;DRAbstract

In this chapter we consider whether there are differences in childrearing styles between employed mothers and full-time homemakers. It was pointed out in Chapter 1 that there has been very little research directly examining the relationship between the mother's employment status and parenting behavior or orientations. Most of what have been proposed as differences have been inferred from outcomes, not examined empirically. Here we try to identify childrearing orientations that are associated with the mother's employment status. In Chapter 10, we will consider how such differences may affect the child.
