Summary Of Win-Win Flexibility By Karen Konbluh

In the story, “Win-Win Flexibility,” the author Karen Kornbluh talks about how families have become different so much in entitle of who makes the money and who stays at home to look out for the children. Karen Kornbluh says that, “a family who achieve a desired end has replaced a family who’s been doing something that has been used by the people in a particular group” of the breadwinner and homemaker. In content, the parents are home much not so much than ever before. As Karen Kornbluh writes about how flexible jobs are all too often just part-time or temporary jobs and writes “A full quarter of American workers are in these jobs. Only 15 percent of women and 12 percent of men in such jobs receive health insurance from their employers.”(220)
