      ab: This article focuses on the increasing trend of working mothers in developed nations as of September 2003. Accompanying and interacting with these trends in household composition were continued demographic shifts and changes in the work-family relationship. Women of child-bearing and child-rearing ages entered the labor force in greater numbers, and the proportion of working mothers with very young children rose rapidly in the last decade, except in Sweden, where the proportion declined, but remained the highest among the countries studied. Leading the way again were Ireland and the Netherlands, most likely for the same reasons as those behind the increases in the overall women's employment-population ratio, Ireland experienced dramatic economic and employment growth in the 1990s, and the Netherlands was and still is a leader in women's part-time employment.
