INTRODUCTION

The mommy track is the diminishing opportunities of women in the workforce upon becoming mothers. References to the mommy track often go along with “opting out” of the workforce by leaving it permanently. The mommy track has primarily been observed within the United States, but has also been observed in other developed countries. Nowadays, many women want to have an occupation. They have studied for so long to achieve their dreams. So they want continue to have job than be unemployed. There are some women who want to take care of their family than go to the work. Some women has their own opinion and choice. Everyone has their right. Low earning women who have children sacrificing about 10 to 14 percent of their total lifetime earnings. Even ten years after having children, a mother in this income bracket earns wages that are about 12% lower than non-mother, low-skilled women. Women choose to work less hours than men. Because they have their responbilities at home to take care their children and husband.
