Answer to Question 1

The student should assert that researcher Susan Chira cites that it is not whether a mother works outside the home or not that matters, but what kind of mother she is. A mother needs to be sensitive to her children's needs and supportive. She argues the government can support families with subsidized daycare, more welfare reform, and encouraging flexible work programs from employers.

Answer to Question 2

B
