Over a couple of decades,
women have been able to make substantial contributions to the financial
independence of nuclear families all over the world.
·
How
do they make this happen?
· Do
you think that this financial advantage is at the cost of some familial
obligations expected of women in general?
It has been long since women
have started putting in greatly to the financial welfare of their nuclear
families. They achieve this fiat in several ways, but it is, at times, by way
of compromising a couple of familial commitments. 40
The first thing with which
women of the times have this extra financial edge is the choosy education they
have had, leading to industry-ready qualifications. For example, job-ready,
tailor-made qualifications let them enjoy greater employability quotient, and the
same is what the new generation employers are looking for. This is followed by mobility
and change of mindset they harness of late. To exemplify, men have come to
terms with the fact that women are a force, and this force is accentuated by
faster movement and affordable timesaving technologies. No wonder, family women
are wealthier. 95
This commendable monitory advantage
notwithstanding, there are a few things that are compromised for it. Many new
generation working women are compelled to give certain familial obligations a
back bench. For instances, smaller children are put in day-care facilities, the
grown up ones are kept in boarding schools and, above all, some women may even go
to the extent saying ‘no’ to child-bearing, at least for a few initial years of
their married life. Ignoring the welfare of older parents and depriving infants
of their tender mother-care are a few of their neglected familial obligations. 95
In brief, women of different
stature and expectations might follow diverse ways to achieve the said
financial edge in their families. But, this position comes at a cost and it is
paid in the form of adjustments, to say the least. 40
