The goal of the practical part was to determine differences in preferences, attitudes and opinions of women with different levels of education. The practical part examined whether university-educated mothers have a greater tendency to give priority to career over parental responsibilities than mothers with secondary or lower education. It also investigated whether university-educated women make greater use of instruments related to child care. The practical part is based on interview surveys and individual conversations. The established hypotheses have been verified and falsified based the analysis of research results. The conclusion proposes recommendations leading to im-provement of the deficiencies in the examined area.
