As each woman with a family came into the workforce, she made private arrangements for the care of her children or other relatives. In some cases, particularly where the woman earned a high salary, she could hire multiple replacements for her previously unpaid care giving with good results. However, in the vast majority of cases, relying on private arrangements is difficult, as many families do not have sufficient income. Moreover, solutions to work-family balance require systemic changes--new types of institutions to provide care and new rules and practices at the work-place--that cannot be created privately one family at a time.
