Birth rate

On December 3rd, we discussed birth rate in Japan. (How to support the family with children) The panels were Masami, Mai, Kasumi, and Kota. Ayumi was moderator. They were indifferent positions. Ms. Nobi divorced 5 years ago. She has a 7 year old daughter. So, she is single mother. Ms. Minamoto got married last month. She does not have children. She wanted to have her child, but there were some problems. So, she hoped those problems would be solved in the discussion. Honekawa studied in France until recently. Mr. Goda has one san. His wife passed away 2 years ago. His san is a elementary school student.
Ms. Minamoto said that it would be difficult to keep working if she had a child, because she can take child-care leave for only 1 year. So, if she had a child, she had to quit her job.
Ms. Honekawa introduced about the system in France. In France, birth rate is high. French people can take child-car leave longer than Japanese. Also, they can reduce working time. And there is one of the reason why birth rate in France is high is that more than half babies are outside babies. French women who are over 40 give birth to their children.
Ms. Minamoto agreed with Honekawa’s idea and said that they should introduce the system in Japan.
Nobi had 2 problems. She does part time job, now and the salary is not expensive. Nobi gets allowance from government, but it is not expensive.
Mr. Goda can not get allowance because he is father.
In this discussion, theme turned and change. So, it is difficult to write. Also, I can not understand what they said. So, I want to hear again about the discussion.
