This deep-seated belief has hurt women’s image when the time came to accept them in the work force. However as time passed by, men realized that women are as capable as them which in turn led to men finally accepting women as their equal in the workplace, or at least this is the case in the developed first world countries. Elsewhere women are far from that status, still being considered inferior to men. However, this should not be the case from a legal standpoint as the Declaration of human Rights (n.d.), signed by the majority of all countries around the world, clearly states in its first article that all human beings are equal in rights, a description, which includes both women and mothers. The Declaration of Human rights (n.d.) further explains in the second article that all human beings, being men or women are entitled to all the same freedoms and rights. Consequently it is clear that women, and subsequently mothers have the same rights are men, and should be allowed to work, just like any other man. As such it is beyond the shadow of a doubt that mothers should be allowed to work. However some conditions might lead to some complications in the application of this equality, as some specific cases would lead to extraordinary conditions that might force the mother to stay at home. However in the increasingly digital age, special circumstances can be overcome, allowing mothers to work from home. While some might worry that such a procedure might be counter productive, Covert (2013) explains that a large commission from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis has looked at the productivity and output of employees specifically that of women and mothers, and has concluded that working mothers are statistically more productive than women with children. Such a quantified result proves that mothers can work and proves wrong all those who claim that mothers are unfit to work. Thus it is clear that
