The median family income in these families was found to be a mere $17,400, the lowest among families with children. Public opinion on women in the workplace has changed as well. Seventy-nine percent of Americans surveyed said women should not return to their traditional roles in the home, but 51 percent of survey respondents said children are better off with Mom in the home. Only 8 percent said the same thing about dads. Respondents were not as bothered about single moms as they were in 2007, when 71 percent of respondents thought kids born to unmarried women were a "big problem." Just 64 percent said the same thing when surveyed in 2013.
