Fort Lauderdale, FL
Since the 70s, women have been on a never ending crusade to assert their dominance in the world market. It’s been an ongoing struggle straddling that line between equal rights and overblown ego massaging. However, the truth is it’s always going to be a strange dynamic for women: fulfilling the role of mother while still being able to keep her social standing amongst the men just as impressive if not more so. As the new decade begins, it’s time to note the pros and cons of mothers focusing the bulk of their attention on advancing their careers as opposed to spending all of their time making the household function smoothly.

Pro: Women who have the guts to assert their authority in professional situations have an elevated sense of self. Their identities of women stretch far beyond the scope of cooking, cleaning, and bearing children. They have made themselves a force to be reckoned with, a dominant influence in the professional world. With this new found confidence, a woman (or any human being, for that matter) will be able to always be ruler of her domain, whether that be at home or the office.

Con: Sometimes women do tend to take themselves far too seriously as regards what I’m dubbing “The Cause”. The Cause is the case that all women rally behind: the right for women to stand up and take control of their lives away from the male dominated hierarchy that’s been oppressing the female influence for far too long. This never ending quest to perpetuate The Cause has left many women forgetting that the family is one of the most important aspects of their lives.

Pro: Women have every right in the world to expect to be treated as equals in the workplace. Therefore, women who want to continue to get a leg up on the corporate ladder are going back to school, earning well respected degrees from well respected universities. More and more women are investing in information technology degree programs, taking full advantage of the online option and earning education degrees online, getting as far ahead of the competition as they can so that they can make a better life for themselves.

Con: Women sometimes have this preoccupation with stamping out injustice everywhere without taking notice of the injustice that takes place in their own household. In an attempt to fight for the rights of women, they’re forgetting that their children have rights as well: the right to be a part of their mothers’ lives, the right to be raised without the stigma of becoming something less than what their mothers expect.

In the long run we don’t want mothers to ever feel as if they can’t go back to school, focus their energy on their careers. Quite frankly, there still aren’t enough women making comparable pay checks or holding positions of power. However, men and women need to remember that their need to conquer the world holds the lives of innocent bystanders in the balance.
