Opting Out?: Why Women Really Quit Careers and Head Home

"The New York Times Magazine" recently portrayed women who leave their careers in order to become full-time mothers as "opting out." But, are high-achieving professional women really choosing to abandon their careers in order to return home? This study tackles this issue from the perspective of the women themselves.
