The physical and mental development of the child is significantly influenced by the feeding and rearing practices. Due to education and more employment opportunities for women, more and more women have joined various jobs outside their homes. The instinct to improve the living standard is also guiding the women to take up paid jobs as the income of men alone is hardly sufficient to cope up with the increasing prices.

The physical and mental development of the child is significantly influenced by the feeding and rearing practices. Due to education and more employment opportunities for women, more and more women have joined various jobs outside their homes. The instinct to improve the living standard is also guiding the women to take up paid jobs as the income of men alone is hardly sufficient to cope up with the increasing prices.
