abstract: 'When children have health problems, mothers face a tradeoff between the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
decision to work to satisfy increased expenses and the decision to stay
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
home to fulfill enlarged caregiving needs, especially for children with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chronic conditions. This research used an instrumental variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
approach to investigate the labor market consequences of mothers due to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
burden to care children with health problems. We found mothers''
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment probability increased by 0.9\% for every \$100 of increased
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
out-of-pocket medical spending, while employment probability fell by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.0\% for every half day of school/day care a sick child missed. By
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
correcting for endogeneity we addressed a potential empirical bias.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Analyses by subgroups showed that Hispanic mothers were less likely to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work in the labor market with high caregiving burden. We also found that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the effects of time burden on labor market outcomes were magnified for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
black mothers.'
