Résumé anglais François de Singly pointed out that non-qualified women tend to commit themselves to a conjugal rather than professional career1. This is the case amongst non-qualified women from a disadvantaged background. Some of them are highly distressed by this single status as child-bearer and mother. The notion of the construction of an identify through professional status seems especially to have caught on in the most disaffected areas. However, the maternal image portrayed through advertising implies a certain standard of living and hence a level of resources unattainable to unemployed young women, even more so given the circumstances of single parenthood which they frequently experience after the birth of a first infant.
