Title

LIFE SATISFACTION AMONG EMPLOYED MOTHERS IN THE

SELECTED ORGANISATIONS OF DHARAN MUNICIPALITY.

Introduction

• Life satisfaction is widely considered to be central aspect of human welfare and is not merely a judgment about one’s life.

• For it is widely thought to involve affirming, endorsing, appreciating or being pleased with one’s life.1

Introduction cont….• Life satisfaction is defined as “a global

assessment of a person’s quality of life according to his or her chosen criteria.”

• Satisfaction of life depends not only on what people have, but on criteria that people choose themselves and how they judge their own achievements.2

Introduction cont….

• The criteria and reference standards are a personal choice and there largely influenced by social, cultural and religious traditions of a group.2

Rationale for the study• Women comprise more than half of the

national population of our country.

• Hence the development of any country is inseparably linked with the status of development of women.2

• More over when a women become a mother her responsibility is added up.

Rational Cont…• Mothers who are working are not happy

leaving their child at such young age. They feel guilty and anxious and their anxiety is transmitted to the child. The mother will phone ten times a day to find out what is happening and try to give instructions over the phone. This can make the whole family develop neurotic tendencies.4

Rationale Cont…• It, therefore, becomes the role and

responsibility of scholars, educationists, socialists, media and voluntary agencies also to act as catalyst, an agent of change to cause stir in the minds of men and storm in the minds of women.
