[quote=Anonymous]Re: affluent women and the workforce, here's the recent study from the Center American Progress looking specifically at the maternal labor force effects of DC's preschool program:  https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/early-childhood/reports/2018/09/26/458208/effects-universal-preschool-washington-d-c/

Key takeaways:

In the years since Washington, D.C., began offering two years of universal preschool, the city’s maternal labor force participation rate has increased by about 12 percentage points, with 10 percentage points attributable to preschool expansion.
    
District of Columbia mothers with young children now participate in the labor force at about the same rate as District of Columbia mothers whose children are in elementary school.
    
Maternal labor force participation increased among both low-income and high-income families. Maternal labor force participation was unchanged for middle-income families during the study period and is examined below.
    
Women with young children also saw large increases in employment, with boosts to full-time work for married women and part-time work for unmarried women.[/quote]
