Women now make up around half the UK workforce. This might bring financial independence that previous generations of women only dreamed of, but many feel it leaves them struggling with other responsibilities such as raising children and running the family home.

Dr. Catherine Hakim from the London School of Economics claims women are making clear choices between work and child-raising, with a high proportion of those in top jobs choosing not to have children.
