How does motherhood affect one’s career?
There have been interesting studies that examine how motherhood affects a woman’s career, both in the short-term and long-run. Research has found that it can reduce a woman’s participation in the labor force and wages when she is younger, but these effects tend to level out in a woman’s 40s and 50s. Only for women with three kids or more does motherhood seem to result in lower wages, over a lifetime.
