All that has changed is that women are now expected to go out and work and well as still being souly responsible for the vast majority of domestic stuff and childcare.
Womens lives aren't better or easier, infact they are now so complicated that half of us are so stressed and knackered we don't even remember who we are anymore.
The role of a mother is less valued by society than it has ever been when we all know that it truely is THE hardest job ever.
