Breadwinner Boom: More Moms Bring Home the Bacon

Mothers are the sole or main provider in 40 percent of households with children.


Interesting story out today met by pew, a study that says that more American moms are bringing home the bacon, an interesting change or twist in the economy or this is expected all along.

Well it’s like one of those societal trends, there are more single moms than ever before, therefore if you are the single mom and sole bread winner earned in the household, you will take the title, so in 40% of homes now a woman is the primary earner, but the primary cause of that is single motherhood, it’s not a huge increase in hourly earnings or whatever for women, it is something more you know more esoteric.
