You can have it all... if you reside in Europe? Is that why European countries are suffering from negative population reproduction rates among natives? Nearly a third of the relative decline in women’s labor-force participation in the United States, compared with European countries, can be explained by Europe’s expansion of policies like paid parental leave, part-time work and child care and the lack of those policies in the United States, according to a study by Ms. Blau and Lawrence Kahn, also of Cornell. Had the United States had the same policies, they calculated, women’s labor force participation rate would have been seven percentage points higher by 2010. nytimes/2014/12/14/upshot/us-employment-women-not-working.html?_r=0&abt=0002&abg=1nytimes/2014/12/14/upshot/us-employment-women-not-working.html?_r=0&abt=0002&abg=1
