Sally gives her opinion on  whether a housewife does “real work.” She talks about how no one else can take care of her kids as well as her, which means she doesn’t like to regularly have someone else take care of them. She then talks about her hopes for her children’s future. Skip Blumberg and Anda Korsts conduct the interview.

Her husband does cook some of the time. At work, she’s thinking about home and the kids. At home, she worries about work. Her ideal life would be not working, and just staying home and volunteering somewhere. She didn’t have to work while her children were very young. Her mother worked also. She talks about her expectations for her daughters. She wants her daughters to get a good education so they don’t have to work in a factory. She says her life is fulfilling, but it could be more interesting and she does have some regrets. She says she wished she had waited longer before she got married and had children. She always wanted to be a newspaper woman.
