Working mother’s quiet quitting choice or compulsion

Women around the world who have young or preschool-aged children often have to choose between their jobs and taking care of their children. This situation can lead to what is called the "motherhood penalty", where mothers face disadvantages at work. Research shows that mothers who return to work after taking a break of more than two years face more difficulties compared to those who return within two years after maternity leave. The mothers with younger children often face more obstacles in their career growth.
