Authors: Laurent Toulemon, Élisabeth Algava, Nathalie Blanpain and Gilles Pison Under the baseline scenario of the INSEE projections for 2070, the population of France will increase up to 2044 and then decline slowly.

All three language socialization activities commonly take place within families, but parents do not always play an equal part in them, depending on ...

New families have to strike a balance between involving the grandparents in the life of their child ...
Today, one newborn in four in France has at least one immigrant parent, with similar proportions of children with two immigrant parents and those born to mixed couples. These children’s origins partially reflect those of migrants to France over the past three decades, in that 69% have parents who were born in Africa – the majority in North Africa (40%). The family ...
When the infants were 2 months old, we looked at how their mothers and fathers shared the physical childcare tasks (changing nappies, cleaning the baby’s nose, bath time, etc.). A comparison of parents’ stated attitudes towards these activities and who actually did what revealed that neither the division of childcare between the two parents nor self-reported attitudes towards this care seemed ...
