The extreme right is capturing children for its cause

by

The seemingly parodic scene came to share prominence with Donald Trump’s great day. During his first hours at the White House, the new president monopolized headlines with Elon Musk. The reason: all the best in front of the planet. For the richest man in the world, an act of euphoria without more. For others, a provocation of clear Nazi connotations that evidenced the turn to the extreme right from Washington. In Sweden they are seeing the echoes of situations like that. Children: Ultra Objective. I told it in an extensive Report the Guardian The weekend. Sweden is facing a worrying transformation in the panorama of the extreme right, a marked by an alarming descent in the age of the recruits, reaching children from the age of 10, especially in areas such as Värmland. Because. To understand the phenomenon, he explained Lars Stiernelöfsociologist and specialist in extremism prevention, which, promoted by the influence of figures such as Donald Trump and Elon Musk, who have popularized associated gestures To the ultra -right as described at the beginning, some minors have begun to imitate Nazi symbologies, but not because of ideology, but by simple fashion, without dimensioning their severity. This initial banalization opens the door to effective recruitment, where violent groups take advantage of the Emotional vulnerability of solitary, isolated and solid networks. Mutation of ultra -right. The British newspaper explained that although the historic Nordic resistance movement (NMR) has lost strength after its designation As a terrorist group In the United States, next to its side has emerged smaller and difficult to track, such as Aktivklubb Sverige and Gym XIV, who use social networks and Platforms like Tiktok To capture members before migrating conversations to private spaces. These organizations have faced international connections with similar networks in Europe and the United States, adopting a strategy based on the Early indoctrination and physical training for violent purposes, under the narrative of an alleged “imminent racial war.” Recruitment profile. Here is another key of movement. Unlike past decades, where strong young people predominated and with certain desires of notoriety, the current recruited are almost the opposite: vulnerable young peoplewithout social belonging and with great exposure to networks Through mobiles. This evolution has been key to feeding the loneliness and radicalization of boys who, without family or community support, find in these groups that false sensation of community and purpose. Plus: the pattern has facilitated the increase in the so -called “lonely wolves”, authors of attacks and violent acts without direct coordination, but driven by them hate doctrines. Members of the Proud Boys Leave, epicenter of the Ultra Swedish. And of all the enclaves of the European nation, the small town of Leave has become the main focus of activity of the ultra -right, hosting the Swedish headquarters of The Hammerskinsa white supremacist group prohibited in Germany, and serving as a meeting point for organizations as NMR and Visitors international, including Proud Boys. The Guardian explained that, although his presence is limited in number, his influence is significantwith training and indoctrination facilities, as was the case with Gym Club XIVrecently closed by local authorities. Racism, misogyny and hate. In addition, the speech of these groups is not limited to racism: they also promote hate towards women, the LGBTQ+ community and encourage conspiracy theories such as that of called “Great Replacement”. Here are names of characters from the called Manzhereas Andrew Tate or Swedish YouTuber Marcus Follin (The Golden One), who are presented as referents of masculinity and white resistance, normalizing extreme speeches among young people looking for identity and belonging. Digital radicalization. The path by which they sneak among the little ones is clear. The Swedish Security Service (Säpo), in fact, He has warned About the fast expansion of this radicalization Through mobile mobile and digital environments and video games, attracting minors who have not even reached adolescence. The combination of social isolation, political polarization and consumption of extremist propaganda seems to have created a fertile terrain for ascent ideological violence, normalizing hatred and threats in the public debate. A global phenomenon? Guardian ended with a Interesting reflection At the end of your report. The strengthening of the extreme Swedish right seems to be clearly framed in an international context in which figures such as Trump and Elon Musk have symbolically legitimized these movements. In this regard, researchers Like Jonathan Leman They stressed that, after the change of posture or turn of the United States In front of the ultra -right, these groups are now felt more close to the dominant speech. And although some government measures try to stop the phenomenon, such as the increase in surveillance and prevention programs, that lack of community ties, youth loneliness and the growing sophistication of digital propaganda with the help of algorithms maintain the alive threat and, perhaps worse, constantly expanding.

After years of Japanese, in Spain there is already a generation at the gates of an uncertain scenario: old age without children

by

In 1960 each Spanish woman had throughout her life almost three children. Today They do not reach 1.2. The data is just that: data, demographic means, pure statistical mathematics, but they serve to understand better trends that are every time more present in homes of homes. As I know Birth sinkslife expectancy and Families changeSpain meets A new reality: The first “without children” generations look at old age with the challenge of facing that last vital stage without offspring. No children. Neither grandchildren. The big question is … why? And what does it imply? Figure issue. Spanish demography (like that of Other other countriesinside and out of the West) It is changing. A lot. And fast. In fact it has been doing it for a long time. If we review the fertility index we find that It has collapsed Throughout the last decades: of 2.94 children per woman in 1967 we have gone to 1.12. And going down. Translated into babies that supposes that today they are born in Spain less than half that in him Baby Boom. The trend has been the opposite among people who live alone. At least over the last years. If in 2014 the unipersonal households supposed 24% of the total From the census, six years later they were already 26%. Another reality is those who live in a couple but choose to do it without offspring. In 2020 the INE counted near four million of homes with that profile, two out of ten. Generations without children. A few months ago the CIS contributed an even more interesting approach. Its technicians They asked to people born over the last decades if they had children and found themselves with which the percentage of ‘Sies’ fell clearly as the age of the interviewees did. It is a predictable trend among younger respondents, under 34, but the study reflects something else: among cohorts with more advanced ages, which are already peeling retirement, there is also a considerable percentage of people without offspring. And to show a button. If 89% of people of 75 or more years had children, that percentage went to 81.5%Among the interviewees from 55 to 64 years. If we go to the fork from 35 to 44 years the proportion drops even more, to 62%, and if we descend even more, focusing on the population between 25 and 34 years, we find that only 32% of respondents have had at least one offspring. Why is it important? Because as I pointed out recently The Spanish newspaper (EPE) in An analysis On that same phenomenon, the data of the CIS show us that Spain is at the gates of a demographic milestone: the arrival in the old -generation old age in which a relevant percentage of people has chosen to have no offspring. According to the CISin the age strip from 55 to 64 years they represent 18.5%. “The ghost of old age without children”. Between that 18.5% of people without offspring, such as I confessed recently A couple in the fifty to EPE, there are those who already contemplate with concern to the “ghost of old age without children.” That is, the perspective of becoming greater or becoming dependent without children or grandchildren who, if necessary, can serve as a network. “It seems that you are always going to be autonomous, but the aging is noticeable year after year and seeing it in your elders causes restlessness because having children does not mean that no one will take care of you, but you can have support, at least someone to call,” Write The same couple. They now have octogenarian parents who need help and “someone for everything.” “What would they do without their children?” Marking the way. 18.5% may seem a reduced percentage yet, but THE STUDY OF THE CIS It is interesting for something else: it suggests that this scenario of ‘old age without children’ will be increasingly common. Among the interviewees of 45 to 54 years the percentage of those who claim to have no offspring represents 21.3% and between the people aged 25 and 44 touches 36-66%. Maternity It has been delaying With the passing of the decades and today it is located in almost 33 yearswith what the logical thing would be for these percentages to soften, but still the trend is clear. THE CIS Confirm In addition, another reality that institutions such as the INE have been drawing for a long time: many of the couples who have been parents have had a single descendant, so the support they can receive in their old age will depend on a single child. It comes to review two figures to understand it: among those over 75 years of age the percentage of people with children who claim to have had more than a offspring reaches 90.3%. Among the interviewees of 55 to 64 years that same proportion already collapses to 73.5%. A complex reality. The big question arriving at this point is … Why do the Spaniards have fewer children than a few decades ago or do we even opt for not having them? The answer is complex and adds multiple factors, including cultural, labor and social changes, but a few months ago the CIS reflected Another factor Same relevant: the economic one. According to your polls, 77.3% Of the Spaniards believe that people have no children “due to lack of economic means.” 44.1% indicate another cause that goes along the same lines: “Conciling problems” work and professional life. Moreover, the research center states that 59% of respondents who have not been parents recognize that they would have liked to be. “Create support networks”. The other question that remains by throwing is … What will this increase in people who reach old age without children or grandchildren? Will it translate into greater pressure for public coffers? The problem is not exclusive to Spain. Other countries (Even in Asia) They also face the challenge of seeing how their demographic pyramid is widened … Read more

In China they are preparing their children for the future. The next course will begin to give a subject of AI

by

Students are about to learn artificial intelligence. Not by themselves (which also), but as part of the educational program. Beijing has declared the implementation of an initiative that will be dedicated to the children of primary, secondary and baccalaureate will form in this area. Eight hours a year. According to the official statement“From the autumn semester of 2025, all the primary and secondary schools of Beijing will provide general education in artificial intelligence, with a minimum of eight annual teaching hours. The courses may be independent or integrate into subjects such as information technology, sciences and practical activities. Innovative teaching approaches will be adopted, including the use of artificial intelligence assistants and project -based learning assistants interactive “. They seem few, but it may be just the beginning. The truth is that eight hours dedicated to AI seem few in a whole course, but it is a minimum that of course can grow. Moreover, in that statement it is indicated that “a mechanism of collaboration between universities, companies and secondary schools will be established to form exceptional talent students in artificial intelligence.” And training for teachers. Of course, teachers will be needed to teach these classes, and therefore in Beijing “teachers from different disciplines such as computer science, mathematics and technology will be trained to teach education in AI.” Impulse for education. The Deepseek phenomenon seems to have given wings to the initiatives aimed at winning the AI ​​career. Schools may launch these courses as an additional subject or as part of other subjects related to technology. AI everywhere. As they point out In Bloombergthis initiative is part of that effort of the Chinese government to ensure that AI infiltrates in various levels. Last week, for example, the Government Congress support The application of large language models and the development of a new generation of manufacturing equipment with integrated. Estonia has already taken a similar step. Other countries have already announced initiatives in this regard. Estonia He became In the first country in the world to integrate the Chatgpt.edu service in its national education system. As of September 1, 2025, 20,000 high school students and 3,000 teachers will have free access to these tools. It will be interesting to see if other countries end up making similar movements. Of course, this is an interesting long -term commitment. Image | David Wooo In Xataka | China has declared the war on private school: why he predicted the prolific “tutorials”

say goodbye to employees if they do not marry and have children

by

October 2024. The New York Times Uncapa One of the latest initiatives sponsored by the China Government to lift its battered birth and that takes off once and for all: literally go door by door In search of women to intervene in crucial decisions about motherhood. Several months have passed since then and, far from lowering the tension, the proposals have climbed several levels. Unprecedented business policy. It also counted the Times this week. In an extreme attempt to reverse the fall in marriage and birth rates, the chemical company Shandong Shuntian Chemical Group issued a notice aimed at its single employees. The proposal: demand marrying and forming a family before September 30 or face the termination of your employment contract. That mandate, that quickly It went viral on social networkswas presented as a call to loyalty and social responsibility, aligning with government efforts to promote a more “friendly with fertility” in China. It is not the first time. The truth is that the chemical company was not the first to intervene in the personal life of its employees. Recently, the Pangdonglai supermarket chain prohibited its workers demand “wedding prices” (skills that men pay to the family of the future wife), arguing that They make marriage more expensive and discouraged the formation of families. In addition, he limited the number of guests at the weddings of his employees to five tables. Despite criticism in networks, The People’s Dailyofficial newspaper of the Communist Party, defended the measure as a step towards a Most accessible and civilized marriage. Be that as it may, before the negative reaction, Shandong Shuntian He withdrew the order that went viral and was forced to undergo a “rectification” by the local government, although the controversy highlighted the degree of interference that some private companies seem to be assuming in the demographic crisis. The background of the marriage crisis (and demographic). It We counted this week. The nation is so desperate to solve the birth rate that they are even considering reduce legal age To marry. In the background, a drastic decrease in their marriage and birth rates. In 2023, Only 6.1 million couples They married, 20% less than the previous year and the lowest figure since the Government began registering data in 1986. In addition, the population has decreased for three consecutive yearswhich has generated a growing concern about the impact on the economy and future work of the country. Other extreme strategies. As We count in October last year, the government had implemented various strategies to encourage birth, from subsidies to Elimination of the Single Son Policy. Some of the most striking actions included those Home visits to women to ask them about their pregnancy plans, but also all kinds of Official propaganda ensuring that pregnancy “makes the most intelligent women”, or even called to create a social environment conducive to fertility, including incentives in the workplace. However, these measures have been received with skepticismespecially Among the young Chinesewho cite economic reasons, lack of job stability and a desire for personal autonomy as the main reasons to avoid marriage and fatherhood. Companies as pressure tools. Had the New York Times Although the Chinese government has not issued direct orders as it did in the past with the policy of the only child, it has encouraged an indirect social pressure model. According to feminist activist Lu Pin, instead of imposing drastic measures, the Communist Party would be delegating the Pressure in private companiesusing social norms to influence citizens’ behavior. The intervention of companies such as Shandong Shuntian and Pangdonglai suggests that many companies consider acceptable to implement Rules aligned with the government agenda. Although officially the government does not force them to marry or have children, it allows and in some cases publicly supports business actions that foster these practices. Social control. In fact, an example of this approach was A filtered draft of the Quanzhou Health Commission, which proposed that government employees “take the initiative in the implementation of the policy of the three children.” Although the document did not specify how they should do it, the similarities with the Single Son Policy They have generated concern about possible more direct state pressure in the future. In short, the measures seem to reflect a change in the Government’s demographic control strategy, which has gone from imposing birth restrictions to the opposite: actively foster marriage and reproduction. In question, of course, the erosion of individual rights and the autonomy of the workers themselves. Image | Josh Vaughn In Xataka | China only allows you to get married from the age of 20.

get older children in whatever it costs

by

Last year it was South Korea that began with the initiative. Faced with their demographic crisis, children are a “precious good” that there is care and prepare for a demanding future, so much that they were even starting them Medicar if “they did not give the size”. That germ now seems to have entered China, where competitiveness at all levels, from marriage to labor ascent, is taking many parents to a dangerous escalation. A phenomenon of stature. The height of Chinese children has increased significantly in recent decades, with The greatest world increase Between 1986 and 2019, according to the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration, a scientific network linked to WHO. This growth has been promoted by improvements in nutrition, access to quality proteins and government programs such as The National School Milk Planthat today distributes free milk to 32.1 million students. However, and despite these advances, many parents consider their children still They are not high enoughwhich has led to a boom in The use of growth hormones and other strategies to increase height. Social pressure. The desire that children are higher is not only a matter of health, but, as we said, it reflects intense competition in labor and marriage markets. In a society where beauty and success standards have been homogenized, the height is seen as A key attribute to obtain better job opportunities and greater attraction in marriage. There are studies. In fact, investigations from the Universidad Deportiva de Pekín and the University of Beijing have confirmed that the highest people in China are more likely to marry and win better salaries. This phenomenon is intensified by the gender imbalance caused by The only child’s policywhich left an excess of men competing in pairs. The companies “push.” They counted in Nikkei That Chinese companies reinforce this trend when establishing height requirements in their job ads, even in positions where it does not seem relevant. An example: A Hangzhou company was looking for a male model for live streaming and only demanded that he measure more than 1.85 meters, regardless of his appearance. For women, the requirement was 1.75 meters. The hormone boom. All this has led to a dangerous escalation of parents. The increase in concern for height has led to an explosive growth In the growth hormone industry in China, which tripled its size since 2018 and exceeded the United States as the largest market in the world. In 2023, the sector reached 12.5 billion yuan (1.75 billion dollars) and remain expanding. In addition, although growth hormones are only authorized for children with hormonal deficiency, many parents seek doctors willing to prescribe them unofficially. For example, the medium counted The case of li taia Changsha filmmaker who began to inject hormones to his 5 -year -old son after noticing that he was lower than 97% of the kids of his age. In a year and a half, the child exceeded the stature of half of his teammates, although the treatment cost him 130,000 yuan ($ 18,000) and coincided with the start of nasal hemorrhages (yes, the doctor ruled out a direct relationship). The figures. Currently, some 700 children are under treatment With growth hormones in the clinic of Dr. Zhu Xinyu in Xiamen, while the Chinese market continues to expand with new treatments that require less injections and longer cycles. It is estimated that by 203010.7% of children diagnosed with hormonal deficiency will receive treatment, compared to 3.7% in 2018. The risks of obsession. Doctors like Zhu and Lu Wenli warned in the report that prolonged use of growth hormones It entails risks like Intracranial hypertension, scoliosis, alterations in blood sugar levels or even possible links with cancer. Thus, parents seem willing to assume these risks and pay the treatments of their pocket, since growth hormones are not covered by the National Health System. How much do we talk about? The annual cost of standard treatment It ranges between 60,000 and 70,000 yuan (8,500/10,000 dollars). The social impact of obsession. Here comes another problem dystopic Added. Nikkei had That the eagerness to make children higher is exacerbating social inequality in China. Families with greater resources They can pay treatments With hormones and training programs, which gives them an advantage in the future work and marriage. As a result, a cycle is being formed in which high children and wealthy families They continue to get more benefitswhile those of lower class are (even more) lagging. Meanwhile, the growing stature of the population is forcing institutions and companies to Make structural adjustments. The cities have raised the minimum height to travel free by public transport of 1.1 meters to 1.3 meters in some cases. For the meters, they have increased the height of its doors from 1.8 meters to 1.85 meters in the newest models. In pediatric hospitals they have had to buy larger beds for larger children, and even the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has proposed to raise the height of the ceilings of new buildings to 3 meters to facilitate the installation of heating and air conditioning systems. In fact, The obsession with height He has taken automotive companies such as Byd and child to start designing cars with more leg space, and children’s clothing manufacturers, which have not yet adapted completely to change, seem to be difficult to find adequate garments for higher children. Pressure from childhood. In some cases, parents impose Strict exercises and diets to maximize the growth potential of their children without resorting to hormones. Cases like Lin Fan’sa mother of Shanghai, who forces her almost 6 -year -old daughter to jump the rope between 400 and 500 times a day, take fish oil supplements and eat more than usual. The girl was of average stature, but in the last two years she has fallen to the lowest quintile, which worries Lin, who measures 1.68 meters and expects her daughter to reach her. For this mother, a young woman who measures at least 1.65 meters will have better opportunities … Read more

Do not leave everything in inheritance to your children

by

Bill Gates has been one of the 10 richest people in the world for decades. However, recently the Gates fortune Several positions have fallen into the list of millionaires, according to Forbes That Fall in estimation of your fortune It is not because the Microsoft founder has erred in its latest investments, but to a plan that has been executing for more than two decades. Donate 99% of his fortune through the foundation he created with his ex -wife Melinda French Gates. This foundation has already donated 100,000 million dollars. His fortune will not be his legacy. Bill Gates is only one of the best known cases of Milmillonarios who have made the decision of do not leave the fortune who have knead their children throughout their lives. He veteran investor Warren Buffett, Mark ZuckerbergMick Jagger, Lauren Powell Jobs or the Sting singer have also declared their negative to leave your empire as inheritance to their children. In one recent interview For the BBC on the occasion of the presentation of its latest book Source Code: My Beginningsthe millionaire recognized that he was not going to leave his fortune as an inheritance. Despite leaving them only a small percentage of their fortune, now estimated at about 107,000 million dollars, the millionaire ensures that Your children will not be poor. “They won’t be,” said Gates. “In absolute terms, they will do well, but in percentage terms it is not a gigantic figure.” Indeed, 1% of something does not seem much, but 1% of 107,000 million are 10.7 billion dollars. An inheritable inheritance. 100,000 million dollars. According to the millionaire to the BBC, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation faced the 25th anniversary of its foundation reaching a round figure: 100,000 million dollars donated to philanthropic projects around the world. “We have donated more than 100,000 million,” says Gates, “but I still have more to give.” The millionaire detailed that about 60,000 million of his fortune had already gone to the foundation where he works full time since he delegated the Microsoft Directorate. The remaining 40,000 million have left the third -party periodic donations, such as their friend Warren Buffett, which every year assigns several billions of dollars To the Foundation. What the Gates Foundation declares. According to the last Public facts For the Gates Foundation, until the fourth quarter of 2023, the Foundation had donated 77.6 billion dollars and had a fiduciary capital of 75.2 billion. Of those 77.6 billion dollars that the Gates Foundation claimed to have donated from its creation to 2023, 59.3 billion had left the Arcas de Gates. Buffett’s contribution since he began collaborating with the Gates Foundation in 2006 was 39.3 billion dollars. From these figures, there is already a lack of the foundation to publish its 2024 accounts, it follows that, in reality, Bill Gates would hardly have contributed 700 million more to its foundation during the last year, while its fortune has been reduced by about 16,000 million of dollars during the last year. The responsibility of wealth. The founder of Microsoft said in his interview he had been very influenced by the philanthropy that his parents had exercised throughout his childhood. His mother frequently said that “wealth entails the responsibility of giving her.” Bill Gates, inspired by his parents and Chuck Feeney Philosophyhe decided to ally with Warren Buffett to found the initiative The Giving Pledgein which several dozen Millionaires have committed to donate at least 50% of your fortune for philanthropic purposes. Names like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Mackenzie Scott or, the last to sign its commitment, Sam Altman, form part of this select club who believes that becoming rich must be accompanied with a commitment to society that has allowed them to get it.

Years ago Mexico opted to offer longer school days for children. Caused an increase in divorces

by

A time ago a group of economists from the University of Tennessee It was done A peculiar questionfor the concepts and ideas that combines and also its implications: does the school’s school day influence The divorce rate parental? If the time children spend at school clearly affects To the dynamics of the families, conditioning as basic aspects as the hours of adults for other tasks, does that factor interfere with the couple’s breakdown? And if so, how? And why? After crossing school data and separations recorded for several years in Mexico, the experts reached A curious conclusion: The expansion of school days or have greater access to schools with extended schedules does seem to affect divorce rates. It increases them. School Conference (and something else). Over the years articles (many) have been published on how the different school day models They affect To students, their performancehe school abandonment or the “Child Wellness”. The debate It is old and root in a dilemma on which they have run ink rivers: Continuous school day or departure? There are those who ensure that this response has implications that go far beyond the classrooms, such as The gender gapthe Differences of opportunities or family poverty. Click on the image to go to Tweet. A new factor: divorces. María Padilla-Romo, Cecilia Peluffo and Marian Its derivatives: The separations. And they have done it based on a very specific question: how does the expansion of the schooling work affect divorce rates? To find out they basically handle two sources, the statistical records of marriage ruptures and school data on the expansion of the school day in the public primary schools. In Mexico they found databases for both fronts, so the country ended up becoming its particular (and huge) laboratory. The data they obtained and interpretation have just reflected them in An essay Posted in Journal of Public Economics. But what did they analyze? The researchers took advantage of a phenomenon that played in their favor: the “Large -scale expansion” of the model of Full -time school (Full-Time Schools, or etc, with a “Extended Day” of Between six and eight hours) In Mexican municipalities from 2007 to 2016. To be more precise, economists resorted to census data from the monitoring of the monitoring Program etc. of the Secretary of Public Education that corresponded to the 2007/2008 academic year, in which It began to applyand 2015/2016. Then they compared the degree of implementation of that program of school day expanded by municipalities and were fixed in women in divorce procedures in each of those locations. In short, they crossed data. The information on marriage ruptures was obtained from the National Institute of Mexican Statistics and Geography (INEGI), where the cases processed between 2000 and 2016 consulted. And the surprise came. After working with the different records, the researchers discovered that there seems to be A marked relationship between the extension of the school day in the primary centers and the ruptures. At least in Mexico. “We found that the expansion of the school day in 3.5 hours causes a significant increase in divorce rates,” explain economists in Your article. “In addition, the effect is increased with each year of exposure from municipalities to full -time schooling.” A well calibrated trend. The experts They go further and share their calculations on the relationship between both factors, broad teaching days and ruptures. “We found that, as a result of an average increase in the availability of etc. of 24 percentage points, the divorce rate increased by 0.041 divorces per 1,000 individuals (an increase of 12.6 in relation to divorces in the municipalities treated in the year prior to the opening of the first etc) “. Moreover, researchers even appreciate that “the effect increases over time” and the increase in the divorce rate is higher when families enjoy the longest teaching days for seven years. “Our main estimates suggest that the availability of ETC It gave rise to 23,119 additional divorces between 2009 and 2016, or approximately 4.7% of the total number of divorces presented during that period of time, ” The study abounds. Its authors also detected another key trend: the longest school days gave rise to greater divorce rates in areas where less traditional social norms overwhelmed on marriage, divorces and female work. Click on the image to go to Tweet. The question: Why? Extend a few hours the time that primary school The article From Padilla-Romo and his companions suggests that it is not. Maybe it’s a few hours, but influence classrooms. And the reason is that this extension of school days is in its own way “an implicit subsidy for children’s care.” Having their children during a broad period in schools – on its website the Mexican government points out that in etc From 8.00 to 16.00 h– Parents have more time. Especially women, in which It regularly falls The care of the offspring. And those hours can use them in working outside their homes, in exchange for a salary that reinforces their economic independence. Although the researchers recognize that the greatest job among women can have other consequences, such as generating “conflicts”, that mothers with an “abusive couple” remain less exposed to it or simply increase the flow of money that enters home, what That facilitates to face the expenses involved in divorce and separation, the researchers suggest that the economic factor is essential to understand the phenomenon. “A disproportionate fraction”. “Mothers and other female members of the family dedicate a disproportionate fraction of their time to the care of children. The longest school days provide them with an increase in their effective time provision, which translates in better opportunities to acquire individual income “, Zanjan The three authors of the study. “As a result, the negotiation positions at home are probable.” “Our results show that the extension of the school day gave rise to higher divorce rates in areas with less traditional social norms on marriage, divorce and the priority of women in jobs, … Read more

There is a challenge to run seven marathons in seven days worldwide. And a Spanish with eight children is sweeping

by

In the world of sport there are demanding challenges, difficult, difficult, extreme challenges and then delusional challenges and within reach of physicists (and minds) with a iron resistance, such as the one he has decided to assume Estefanía Unzu Ripollbetter known in networks such as ‘Verdeliss’. Of 39 years and mother Outcutuplethis pamplonesa has proposed to end Seven marathons. The surprising thing is how you want to do it: the seven 42 -kilometer races are held in consecutive days… and in different parts of the planet. It has already begun. And he is not going wrong. Figure issue. Yes, the numbers are correct. All. Verdels is 39 years old, eight children and is embarked on the challenge of completing seven marathons that are held over seven days in seven different places on the planet. And by different we do not refer to small borders. No. The races that have already completed were held in Antarctica, Africa, Australia and Asia. The idea is to continue with Europe, South and North America. And all this, we repeat, in a period of Only 168 hours. Why’s that? There are several answers. If the question is why completing seven marathons in those seven places for seven days, the answer is simple: they are part of an international challenge that has already Some years celebrating, the World Marathon Challenge. The test has a limited number of squares and this year is celebrated over 168 hours in Antarctica, Cape (Africa), Perth (Australia), Dubai (United Arab Emirates), Madrid (Spain), Fortaleza (Brazil ) and Miami (United States). When they ask Verdeliss why he has decided to submit to such a test (and of course, it is something that They have asked him During the last weeks) she replies that he seeks to “live life intensely” and enjoy without the fears limited. Your participation It also has a solidarity component. As I explained recently At 20 minutes, he wants to raise funds for the investigation of a rare disease, the Menke-Hennekam syndrome.

Trump freezes aid that could affect feeding of children and older adults

by

President Donald Trump ordered to freeze financial aid to several programs, including federal loans, in an attempt to eliminate expenses, but whose decision would even affect food aid programs for children, single mothers and older adults. The measure enters into force at 5:00 pm on Tuesday and has caused outrage, in addition to a group of general prosecutors from several states to submit a lawsuit. This effort of the Trump administration will affect millions of Americans, regardless of whether the State is governed by Republicans, Moveon Civi Action warned. White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said that the freezing of funds is a federal expenditure review and said that direct help to people would not be affected, although several organizations that receive aid funds may not exercise their programs and even congressmen alert the negative consequences. “It doesn’t matter who has voted or where you live, because Trump is taking measures to eliminate programs that help common Americans,” said Rahna Epting, executive director of Moveon Civic Action. He warned that among the programs are those who help children for food, as well as older adults. “(The preschool centers will be blocked), the freezing of Head Start’s help to face the hunger for young children and the end of the Meals On Wheels program for the elderly in need,” said Epting, who accused that, at the same time, Trump defends exemptions for the richest Americans. There is no official report of how many programs will be affected, but it will be known once the executive order enters into force. “In the next few hours and days, we will know more and more about how many programs and people will be affected by the suspension of Trump’s financing,” said Epting. “We will not allow faint -hearted republicans who stay on the sidelines while Trump harms their voters. (…) Most Americans still fight to get ahead and need stability and help, not Trump’s chaos that will worsen their lives and increase costs and ruin our economy. ” Congressmen warn damage Democratic Senator Rubén Gallego (Arizona) criticized Trump’s decision and warned consequences in vulnerability, in addition to affecting various social groups. “Children will go hungry, older Americans will not be able to pay the rent and police departments will suffer budget cuts due to the chaotic freezing of Trump team funds,” Gallego said. “They can’t even write a clear memorandum and now their incompetence is creating chaos in communities throughout the country.” (Tagstotranslate) Food Infant (T) Donald Trump
