Married Women Leave Home to Work

Today's Washington Post had an article on the front page of the Metro section entitled "More Moms Entering Workforce." The article talked about the recession forcing more married woman who had been staying at home with their children to find work outside the home.

The number of stay-at-home moms has dropped from 5.3 million in 2007 to 5.1 million in 2009, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
