Happy Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day to the estimated 82.8 million mothers today. This information is provided by the US Census Bureau of 2006-2008.
10.4 million mothers are single parents who have children who are 18 years old or younger. 5.6 million of mothers are "stay at home mothers." And 80% have been first-time mothers who worked all the way up to one month or less just before giving birth. 55% of first-time mothers returned to work by the sixth month after giving birth; 83% of mothers returned to work within a year after having their baby.
Of mothers who have children younger than 6 years old, 54% eat breakfast and 79% eat dinner with their children everyday.
Congratulations to all mothers! Enjoy your day and enjoy your children everyday.
When drafting a Colorado parenting plan, don't forget to include holidays, including Mother's Day. Designate every Mother's Day as parenting time for the children to be with mom. If you'd like to discuss parenting time or other children's issues, please contact me.
