Default Re: your mom: stay at home or career oriented?

My mum's always worked from a young age, and still does now. Yes, part of it is financial reasons, but I think she really enjoys it aswell. I think the difficult, yet still admirable, thing for my mum's generation is that they've often been expected to work (like a modern Western woman) and still maintain all the upkeep of the house, children, family (like a traditional Asian woman).
