A Society That Does Not Allow Children to Have Children (Translated Documentary)
About This Novel
It's not that you "can't" have children, it's that society "doesn't allow" you to have children. The entire social environment is telling women: "If you are so worried about your children, let the mother stay at home." What is the fundamental reason why young people are unwilling to have children? How to change the social status quo of low desire for childcare? From the perspective of women such as the unfair treatment of pregnant women in the workplace, the shortcomings of obstetrics and gynecology in hospitals, and the problems in child care institutions, the author provides an in-depth analysis of the social factors of low fertility. The author Miki Kobayashi won the Poverty News Reporting Award in 2013 for her "report on the structure of a 'society that does not allow childbearing' and a series of discrimination against pregnant women in the workplace." In the last chapter, the author describes the ideal form of a "society capable of giving birth," but changing the status quo still requires the joint efforts of all levels of society.
