This study focused on the implications of working mother to the psychosocial development of school children. Specifically, it aimed to determine the relationship of the demographic characteristics of the working mother and the psychosocial maturity of their school children and the psychosocial development these children are experiencing at present. The research study was conducted in the four municipalities of Cavite namely Dasmarinas, Kawit, Indang and Silang from June to December 2010. A total number of 300 respondents of working mothers of ages 25 to 59, with school children, ages six to 12, were selected as respondents. Utilizing non- probability technique, purposive sampling of 25 working mothers per barangay was done. Demographic characteristics were gathered using self-formulated questionnaires as well as the assessment of psychosocial development for the school children with two indicators, including psychological and social development. Based on the findings, it was found out that there is no significant relationship between the demographic characteristics of the working mother and the psychosocial development of the school children except for the length of time of the working mother.
