In the event you read one of the articles in the past year about
"highly educated" women opting out of the labor force to raise
their kids, or were subjected to a long paranoid lunch conversation
started by someone who had read one of these articles, it is my pleasure
to share with you a new study entitled "Are Women Opting Out?
Debunking the Myth" by CEPR's Heather Boushey.
The press release and full report can be found at

For a shorter version, see Eduardo Porter's article "Mother's Flight
>From Job Force Questioned," New York Times, 12/2/05.
