The 15 March edition of Nursery World reported a study by the Institute of Social and Economic Research which apparently showed that children with mothers who worked full-time were less likely to achieve well at school. I feel this is very unfair on the parents, and for those of us who work hard to provide a quality service for their children. Parents have every right to choose to work. This does not mean they do not care about the welfare and education of their children. Studies such as this just make mothers feel guilty for doing something that they are entitled and may need to do.
