With the emergence of families at such a rapid rate, came the development of traditional gender and family roles. Women were encouraged to stay home for the housework and provide meals for their husbands and kids as they returned from work and school. These stereotypes were constantly reinforced for the promotion of the picture perfect "standard" suburban family.

Women abandoned educational aspirations to settle for their family; perpetuating their status as stay-at-home mothers and wives. Propaganda within the media, television, and advertisements promoted this stereotype, along with the "breadwinner" father.

Dr. Benjamin Spock’s best-selling book, The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care outlined how a stay-at-home mother should act and behave.

The baby boom also introduced an era of overpacked school districts. It was common for two students to share one desk during this time, as the baby boomers began to be enrolled into school once they all collectively reached the student age range. New schools were being built every week in some states, especially California. In 1994, over a million baby boomers were enrolled into school in New York City.

In addition to the status of the workforce after World War II, the baby boom was directly caused by a technological boom. New household technology attracted people so many started buying homes. This connects to the Baby Boom and marriage popularity in the 1950s since the role of women shifted towards using these household technologies creating the stereotype of a stay-at-home mother. These advertisements advocated new technologies and were social factors and influences.

During WWII, a selective number of women earned their voices and experiences within the workforce. With many men leaving their jobs to join the military, their empty positions were taken by women. However, after WWII, most women were laid off since men returned. This graph represents the labor supply of different aged women throughout the latter of the 1950s. Older aged women had an increased labor supply demand while younger women had a decreased demand. These young women who worked at the time of the war had grown up, surpassing the title of "young" (which is age 33 and older according to the graph). Thus, these older women had more experience during the war. The younger women in the postwar period (who did not work during the war) were more likely to become laid off from their jobs and businesses wouldn't even hire them. This is because older women were favored by companies due to their experience working in the war. With the younger women age group not being employed and having to stay at home, many turned towards getting married and starting a family. These conditions progressed towards the Baby Boom and the popularity of marriage during the 1950s. The Post WWII economic conditions and workforce occurrences were key aspects of shaping the 1950s.
