Opting back in?

Jump to Comments

There was an interesting article in the NYTimes yesterday about women “opting back in” to the workplace after having children. The author of the article claimed this was a new trend- and that jobs with more flex time and shorter hours were the new thing for these women. Is this another new set of choices? Are these women anxious to get back to work because they never wanted to leave? Why are only women being talked about as moving in that direction when in reality the workplace is shifting for everyone?
