For a women, no matter how career oriented she might be, for her family comes first. A new survey has revealed that most women are opting for a healthy family life rather a career.

A national study of almost 2300 women, showed three quarters of respondents aged between 18 and 65 believe family is the single most important thing in their life.

The survey notices women shifting from a “perfectionist" attitude and rate their family, seeing friends, keeping fit, further study and community work as more important than pursuing their career.

Jenni Colwill president of 2020Women, says, “We"ve got this opinion that women have to do everything, the paid and the unpaid work, the family responsibilities and I"m not sure that has necessarily changed. I think what you see now is women who are more assertive, when they get annoyed with the workplace, they"re more likely to express their dissatisfaction and leave."

Women of the new generation “no longer believe that 'having it all" requires 'doing it all".
