Women out of bondage

Abstract

The typical re‐entrant is in her late 20s or early 30s, and is married with two children — the youngest under six. She left school at 16 with no qualifications and went to work as an unskilled non‐manual worker, typically in a shop. During the seven years she worked prior to having a family she changed her job two or three times, generally to very similar work. And she left at first pregnancy, happily, intending to be away from employment for at least 10 to 12 years.
