Two exceptions were African American households, of which as many as 20 percent were headed by women, and farm wives (almost half of all married women in 1900), who were an integral part of their family's work, although not counted as such in employment statistics.Historical Shift from Staying at HomeBy the 1940s, many mothers suffered the same pressures as mothers today.
