European Professional Women and Motherhood

This article is referring to cultural differences in women with juggling careers and motherhood. The article throws out the view for discussion that European women to not achieve as much as American counterparts because of more generous time off policies with European companies.

The big worry in some political corners is that so called "big business" will not have leaders that are representative of the demographics of the country, and the companies will not grow as well as the American counterparts. If women are home for 3 months with a child, who could blame them if they did not want to come back. Heck, after two days I do not want to show back up at work. Thus, companies will lose top talent because of family concerns.
