Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

From research, In 2016, average U.S moms spent around 25 hours a week on paid work, up from nine hours in 1965. At the same time, they spent 14 hours a week on child care, up from 10 hours a week in 1965.

They are also very worried about the performance or state of their children and feel guilty if they do not reach their expectations.
