A couple of weeks ago some of you completed a survey on juggling
careers and motherhood, and the results are in. Here are some of the
findings:
? 76 percent of you feel that the ?sweet spot?
for a working woman to have or adopt her first baby is between ages 25
and 34. And 42 percent thought that 25 to 29 was the best time.
?
But not everyone agrees. More than 17 percent of women said that there
is no ideal age, and women who aren?t mothers were more likely to think
that 30 to 34 is the ideal range.
? 59% of women felt that they
had to return to work -- even though 73% of them didn?t feel pressure
from the people around them.
? 63% of working moms had working moms growing up, but only 30% said it influenced their decisions to also be working moms.
