The selection between staying looking after children and going for work is very difficult for Bangladeshi parents specially mothers. There are the arguments in favour and against the job of mothers. The supporters of mothers work are of the opinion that working mothers create self-confidence,social awareness and sense of commitment, struggle and lot of monetary benefits. The opponents argue that by working, mothers deprive their children from early development and training. Hence,it is not immoral for a mother to have a job but it is probably not the encouraging activity for her children. The study attempts to find out the effects of parents? work on the early growth,training and performance of children.
