In California, a minor incident has stirred up a hornet's nest. When Lockerin registered to run for Congress, the law stated that she could not include being a mother or her list of jobs. Now she has started a campaign to change the law and give motherhood legal recognition as a job. Motherhood is a tough job, she says, and estimates it would cost $68,000 a year if professionals were hired to repace a mother. Ms. Lockerin wants motherhood to get the social benefits and respect is deserves.
