Mother is a person who has many task and responsibilities daily. In addition, as a working mother, tasks and responsibilities are double and triple, for instance task and chores at home and task at the organization. Total quality management is practices and procedures that organizations use in order to enhance or improve the performance of the employee or the organization. Performance of working mothers is said to be not satisfactory, and their performance may drop after having babies. Some organizations and their colleagues don't seem to be helpful to working mothers after rejoining the workforce right after maternity leave ended. Some organization from other countries provide work-family support policies in order to help these working mothers to balance their lifestyle as mother and as an employee. Some researchers claimed that working mothers tend to have very happy children whilst underperforming in the organization. This chapter seeks to investigate the perception of working mothers on their performance after the implementation of total quality management.

The stigma continues and impacts the condition and vulnerability of a mother. This research is descriptive qualitative research and analyzed by feminist theory about mothers. The study results stated that the romanticism of the mother's role affected the workload received. This study opens a view about the need for efforts to solve the problem of romanticism in the role of mothers. It is necessary because it is helpful to prevent the occurrence of adverse effects on the condition of the mother's vulnerability. This study also found four stigmas received by working mothers and housewive such as Bachelors who only become full-time mothers, housewives: working spends husband's money, working mothers: never have time to educate children, working mothers: children are entrusted to grandmother, be a grandma's child, housewive are clumsy. Housewive enjoy life because they relax, career women like hanging out, and working mothers have minimal knowledge of kitchen and parenting matters. The two points above are important points that became the findings in this study. housewife: work spends husband's money, working mother: never has time to educate children, working mother: grandmother leaves children, be grandma's child, housewive are clumsy.

Romantisme terhadap peran ibu sering memberikan dampak yang kurang baik terhadap kondisi ibu. Selain romantisme, Stigma juga lahir dan diterima oleh ibu rumah tangga dan ibu yang bekerja. Stigma tersebut terus diproduksi dan memberikan dampak terhadap kondisi dan kerentanan seorang ibu. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif, dan dianalisis dengan teori feminis tentang ibu. Hasil penelitian menyatakan bahwa romantisme peran ibu memberikan efek terhadap beban kerja yang diterima. Penelitian ini membuka pandangan mengenai perlunya upaya-upaya yang bisa menyelesaikan persoalan mengenai romantisme terhadap peran ibu. Hal tersebut diperlukan, sebab berguna untuk menghambat terjadinya dampak buruk terhadap kondisi kerentanan ibu. Penelitian ini juga menemukan empat stigma yang diterima ibu bekerja dan ibu rumah tangga seperti:  Sarjana <em>kok </em>yang hanya menjadi <em>fulltime mom</em>, ibu rumah tangga: bekerja menghabiskan uang suami, ibu bekerja:  tidak pernah memiliki waktu untuk mendidik anak, ibu bekerja: anak dititipkan nenek, jadilah anak nenek, ibu rumah tangga itu kucel. Ibu rumah tangga enak hidupnya karena hanya santai-santai, wanita karir emang hobinya nongkrong, dan ibu bekerja memiliki pengetahuan yang minim terhadap urusan dapur dan pengasuhan. Dua poin diatas menjadi poin penting yang menjadi temuan dalam penelitian ini.</p>

Aims: This study aimed to determine if there was an association between head lice infestation and anemia among female primary schools students. Study Design: Case-control study. Place and Duration of Study: Holy Makkah, Saudi Arabia between August 2020 and November 2020. Methodology: We conducted a case-control study by comparing hemoglobin levels among study subjects with and without head lice infestation. Female students at 6 randomly selected primary schools were examined for the presence of head lice. Hemoglobin levels were obtained from each study subject; both those with and without head lice. Selected characteristics of study subjects were recorded and examined to determine associations between those factors and              anemia. Results: A total of 82 subjects were included in the study; 44 subjects with head lice. The average (± standard deviation) age of subjects was 11 (± 2) (range: 6-11) years. We found a significant (p<0.028) association between the presence of head lice and hemoglobin level, the OR= 2.036 at 95% confidence interval 0.23 to 18.009. The mean of hemoglobin in subjects with lice was 13(±2) while the level in subjects without lice was 14.8(±2). Other factors significantly associated with the level of hemoglobin were being aged 10-11 years (p<0.05) and having a non-working mother (p<0.05). Conclusion: In our study we found a significant association between head lice and level of hemoglobin among study subjects. Further studies are needed to determine the reason of this association in order to determine the appropriate management and prevention of this problem.

<p>Celebrations of Scottish literature in the last decades of the twentieth century have neglected one of Scotland’s most important writers: Agnes Owens. Owens’ work and its influence is far more complex, and far greater in reach, than most accounts acknowledge. Her significance is no secret: Alasdair Gray and James Kelman have championed her work; Glasgow University’s Douglas Gifford has said that Owens “can claim to have done more than most in the redefinition of women in fiction.” This paper aims to lay the groundwork from which meaningful criticism of Agnes Owens can be realised in the 21st Century. Taking cue from Walter Benjamin’s “The Author as Producer”, particularly his argument that “the tendency of a work of literature can be politically correct only if it is also correct in the literary sense”, I argue that the aesthetics and politics of Owens’ work deconstruct and redefine traditional models of working-class literature and representation.  The first chapter analyses her first collection of short stories, Gentlemen of the West and its sequel novella, Like Birds in the Wilderness. I challenge the way these texts have been read as realist working-class fiction through a careful examination of her short stories and novellas, offering an alternative framework through which they can be read. Gentlemen subverts notions of societal “initiation” in working-class fiction, with Mac’s attempt to escape his community being undone by the conclusion of Birds. The second chapter is a study of three of her short stories, attending to her minimalist illustrations of the socially condemned, and her confronting exposition of the readers’ gaze. Finally, this thesis discusses the gendered landscape of her novel, A Working Mother. Using Elaine Showalter’s The Female Malady as an organising text, I argue that Owens’ treatment of gender relations challenge literary notions of female “hysteria” and madness. Taken as a whole, this thesis addresses Owens’ absence, attempting to locate her work within Scottish literary criticism. It is offered as a way forward for the study of her work in years to come.</p>

World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that babies remain given exclusive breast milk for the first six months of a baby's life. However, there were some obstacles that cause the mother to be unable to give exclusive breast milk to her baby. By the time the baby becoming 4 to 6 months, the opportunity to provided exclusive breast milk is reduced because of many factor such as working mother can be an obstacle to providing exclusive breast milk. Often for mothers prefer to provide formula milk or complementary food for their babies to make it simply.This literature review aims to determine the differences in nutritional status of infants who were exclusively breastfed and those who were not exclusively breastfed at the age of 4 to 6 months. This literature review is semi-quantitative using the narrative review method. The search for articles accessed from the PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct database found 40 articles that met the criteria. There were differences in the nutritional status of infants who were exclusively breastfed and those who were given non-exclusive breastfeeding. Babies who were exclusively breastfed at the age of 4 to 6 months had a better nutritional status than babies who were given nonexclusive breastfeeding.
