Summary "I am really not interested in breaking the glass ceiling breaking the glass ceiling is hard work."Meet Su Amaranayaka, she's 36 and a mum to a two year old boy. She gave up a career with GE Money to become a stay-at-home mum. She says having it all is a myth."I honestly don't know why I ever thought about doing it all. I don't know how these parents, who have had 3-4 hour's sleep, get up, put on their makeup, and go and work a full day."Recent reports show women still lag behind men in the workplace and the gender wage gap is now the widest in twenty years.The Government says it's determined to close the gender wage gap and increase women's participation in the workplace.But will the Government's plans to provide equality and make the workplace more family-friendly shatter or strengthen the glass ceiling?And do women want it all anyway?This week Insight brings together women, employers and government to find out what women really want. Australian current affairs forum program, presented by Jenny Brockie. (An SBS Television Production, in English) CC WS
