Kristin S. Seefeldt - Working After Welfare: How Women Balance Jobs and Family in the Wake of Welfare Reform

In this volume, the author shares some insights about the lives of single mothers who left welfare for work. They experience struggles similar to those faced by the Ivy League women profiled by the Times, yet they have far fewer resources. Most of the women whose situations she studied have not attended college, let alone Ivy League institutions, and few have spouses or other partners to help with child rearing. These individuals include Mishon, a hotel housekeeper in her early thirties with two teenagers. In 2004, Mishon earned just over the minimum wage. Mishon’s hours at work had recently been reduced, but she believed it was better for her to stay with her current employer, since her schedule was otherwise stable, allowing her time to help her children with their homework. At the other end of the spectrum in terms of pay is Caroline, who by 2004 was earning the equivalent of $19 an hour as a registered nurse. Yet, Caroline also did not want to switch jobs, in her case to a supervisory position, fearing that she would lose control over her schedule and have to work when others called in sick or the like. Although Caroline admitted that she probably had more flexibility to work different shifts (third shift, for example), now that her three children were older, she too contended that her children “came first” in all of her decisions.
