The Female Economy
September 23, 2009
Of course children benefit from positive feedback. But praise and rewards are not the only methods of reinforcement. More emphasis should be placed on appreciation-reinforcement related explicitly and directly to the content of the child's interest and efforts.

"Women feel vastly underserved. Despite the remarkable strides in market power and social position that they have made in the past century, they still appear to be undervalued in the marketplace and underestimated in the workplace. They have too many demands on their time and constantly juggle conflicting priorities — work, home, and family. Few companies have responded to their need for time-saving solutions or for products and services design specifically for them."
Exchange wants to keep its finger on the pulse of the child care economy. Please participate in this week's Exchange Insta-Poll and tell us what you project to the child care economy in your community in the upcoming six months.

So good that Harvard is pointing this out. Women in general, and a newer version of what is considered a family, are still expected to perform in a business model that was set up to serve patriarchal societies. In some places, the only way to succeed, is to have a partner who takes care of everything else but working outside the home.
There's also the other factor that investing in women and girls in developing countries has the biggest pay-offs all round.

The findings of this researh are all too familiar and true. Companies in general are unsympathetic to the needs of women in the workforce including child care itself.
The stress and strain on women is evident as the increase of theraputic massage, chiropractic, and various relaxation programmes are increasing.
We need to address these issues and provide for the imminent increase of stress related illnesses increase as the population matures and ages.
