Recent study done in New Zealand shows that the native men do not approve of women working full time after having children.
Eighty three per cent of respondents approved of married woman working full-time before they have children but only 2 per cent approve of full-time work when women have children under school age.
Professor Phil Gendall, lead researcher reveals mixed attitudes on gender issues and says, ‘Despite the attitudes expressed above, 50 per cent still believe that a working mother can establish just as warm and secure a relationship with her children as a mother who does not work, and 46 per cent believe working is the best way for a woman to be an independent person’.
