Question

today more than half of all mothers with preschool children ______.
(1 point)

○ are single parents

○ stay at home to care for their children

○ are in the work force

○ married later in life

Explanation:

Social and economic trends show that a majority of mothers with preschool-aged children now participate in the paid workforce, with data confirming this is the most common status among this group. The other options do not represent the majority: single parents are a subset, most do not stay home full-time, and marriage timing is unrelated to current status with preschool children.

Answer:

○ are in the work force
