　　Research suggests that if a woman runs her household without any help，she has less interest in scaling the career ladder.

　　But the reason for this is not quite what you might expect，such as being too tired.According to experts，the satisfaction of being in charge of day­to­day domestic tasks leaves mothers with less of a thirst for success at work.If she were indeed to “have it all”—a family life，a love life and a career—she would need to be prepared to carve up some of the home decisions with her spouse，a study suggests.

　　The study asked 136 men and women aged 18 to 30 whether being in control of household decisions is something they desire.Both sexes agreed that being in charge is an advantage.Then,150 women were asked to imagine being a married mother and either making most of the household decisions or making them jointly with her husband.Those who had imagined being in control at home placed less value on things such as earning a high salary than those who had imagined sharing the running of the household.

　　Then，almost 650 men and women were asked to imagine one of the same two scenes but with division of household chores.The men’s interest in work was not affected by thoughts of being in charge at home.And if a woman imagined having to do all the chores，without making the decisions at home，she was still hungry for power in the workplace.
