Estonian mothers can stay at home with their children.
They receive money from the state. But a longer leave can reduce their wages.
The study showed that mothers earn less than women without children.
The problem is that mothers take longer leave. This can make their wages smaller.
Women with higher education get more help with children.
A good solution is quality kindergartens. This helps all children.
In Estonia, women do more housework.
In Nordic countries, mothers and fathers are equal. There is a small wage gap.
Change is possible, but slow.
