Quotes About Day nurseries

where other conditions are equal, the children of mothers who work because they want to are less likely to be disturbed, have problems in school, or to "lack a sense of personal worth" than housewives' children. The early studies of children of working mothers were done in an era when few married women worked, at day nurseries which served working mothers who were without husbands due to death, divorce or desertion.
~ Betty Friedan
I think that what will help women get into positions of power - well, day nurseries, equal pay, family-friendly working hours. And I think all that's important. I used to think it was the solution. I now think it's enabling, and it's important, but still we have got head work to do about this.
~ Mary Beard
