Career woman home economics practice program

Abstract

To solve the problems in which, due to an inverse proportional relation between an employment rate of women and a birth rate, the more a nation promotes the improvement in status and participation in society of women, the more it faces national decline through low birth rates, population decline, and weakened national power, career women face the same rigorous performance evaluations, personnel assessments, and promotion competitions as men, their demanding work leaves them no time for marriage, pregnancy, childbirth, or childcare, and they either avoid marriage altogether or, if married, forgo having children, thereby sacrificing their personal lives.SOLUTION: Future career women should participate in a comprehensive program managed and operated collaboratively by families, schools, and government. This program would ensure they complete childbirth during their teens. Society would then provide ongoing support for both the women and their children. Consequently, women could fully dedicate themselves to their careers after entering the workforce. Even if they remain single for life, they would gain a sense of satisfaction, fulfillment, and accomplishment from having left behind children. Simultaneously, this approach would contribute to the maintaining and increasing of the population.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a home economics training program for career women that utilizes home economics classes in schools to increase the birth rate of the nation as one of the measures to combat the declining birthrate in developed countries. [Background technology]

[0002] Whether or not to get married, or whether or not to have children, is a matter of personal value, and therefore a matter of freedom. Thinking, "If I don't have children, the family line will die out, but I guess that can't be helped..." is also a matter of personal value, and therefore a matter of freedom. However, a nation, which is a collection of individuals, cannot afford to think, "If the population declines, the country will perish, but oh well..." In the international community, when another country declines due to population decline and eventually disappears, it is dismissed with, "Oh, so it's gone, poor thing..." However, the problem of one's own country's declining population is not something that can be dismissed so easily. It is an important issue that each nation must take serious measures to address for the long-term future. However, even if measures are taken, we cannot go back to the past when it was common for women to marry at around the age of 15 and give birth to seven or eight children, and in some cases even more than ten. For a country to maintain its population, it is absolutely necessary for its total fertility rate (TFR) to not fall below 2. Currently (as of the first quarter of the 21st century), most developed countries have a TFR below 2. The main reason for this is the increasing level of education and participation of women in society. Therefore, even countries that are barely managing to maintain a TFR of 2 are concerned that it could fall below 2 in the future if the rate of women continuing on to university and graduate school continues to increase. Developed countries must ensure and improve the right to education, opportunities to play an active role in society, and an environment in which people can pursue happiness, without discrimination between men and women. Gender equality and fairness must be prioritized, even if it means delaying marriage, not marrying at all, and having fewer children, which may weaken the nation's strength. Looking at the future of the world from a broad, long-term perspective, population is the most fundamental factor in determining national power. Therefore, the global trend will be one in which gender-respecting nations decline due to population decline, while gender-discriminating nations rise due to population growth. This will redraw the power map of religious and cultural spheres in the future, upset the global power balance, and increase geopolitical risks. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] This had the following drawbacks: There are two types of ideal age for childbirth: the "biological ideal age for childbirth" and the "social ideal age for childbirth." The idea behind the biological ideal age for childbearing is that (1) childbirth is limited to the period from menarche to menopause. (2) Eggs have the characteristic that their degree of deterioration is proportional to the order of ovulation. (3) In the latter half of ovulation, eggs enter a region of deterioration compared to average, so the risk of abnormalities (teratogenesis, intellectual and developmental disabilities, Down syndrome, etc.) gradually increases. Therefore, giving birth as early as possible avoids wasting excellent eggs. This idea has been adopted by peoples and nations throughout history and around the world since the origin of humanity. The idea of ​​the socially optimal age for childbearing ignores the development of reproductive ability and says that minors should receive an education, become adults, enter society, acquire economic power, become independent and take on adult responsibilities, and become mentally mature before getting married. This idea is adopted in modern civilized nations, especially developed countries.

[0005] Generally, women experience menarche at the first zodiac cycle (age 13) after birth. At the second cycle (age 24), they enter the workforce. At the third cycle (age 37), their eggs begin to deteriorate. At the fourth cycle (age 49), they experience menopause. When women's childbearing ages are segmented, the first period (13-24 years old) is medically optimal, the first half is socially inappropriate, and the second half is appropriate. The second period (25-36 years old) is medically and socially appropriate, and the third period (37-48 years old) is medically inappropriate but socially appropriate. Traditionally, efforts to increase population in each country have focused on women (aged 18 to 36) from the latter half of the first period to the second period. Childbirth is possible only if all four elements—▲1▼ "will," ▲2▼ "function," ▲3▼ "opportunity," and ▲4▼ "timing"—are met. Initiatives for each of these are being promoted: ▲1▼ "lifestyle support," ▲2▼ "infertility treatment support," ▲3▼ "matchmaking support," and ▲4▼ "workplace environment support." ▲1▼ is the problem of the working poor and social inequality, where economically unstable non-regular and temporary workers are unable to plan their lives and lose the desire to marry. ▲2▼ is the problem of reproductive dysfunction caused by endocrine disruptors, LGBT issues, herbivores, and sexless marriages. ▲3▼ is the end of an era in which aggressive pursuits were successful and resulted in a happy marriage, and the problem of second attempts being turned into stalking. ▲4▼ is the problem of highly educated career women becoming so absorbed in their work that they miss their chance to get married. Private businesses offer childbirth support services such as matching, sperm sales, artificial insemination, egg freezing services, surrogacy services, and others, but none of them provide a fundamental solution.

[0006] Here, we will examine a typical model case of the problem of highly educated career women missing their chance to get married, which is the biggest factor behind the declining population in developed countries. Typically, women enter the workforce at age 22, after graduating from university. In the future, as the rate of university enrollment increases and the prerequisite for elite employment becomes graduation from a top university or completion of a graduate program such as an MBA, it will no longer be unusual for women to reach this age at 24. This is the age at which early marriages lead to the birth of a second child. 1. As a new member of society, she tries her best to learn the job, filled with both hope and anxiety. Despite repeated failures, she grows little by little with the support of those around her. During this time, she is devoted to her work, and has no interest in romance, marriage, or even childbirth. 2 After a few years, she gradually becomes accustomed to her job and has more time and mental space. As the number of junior colleagues increases, she automatically becomes a senior and learns the pleasure of wielding a small amount of power. Furthermore, she develops a sense of rivalry with her peers and a desire to move up the ranks, and is constantly working to improve her skills. For now, she wants to focus on her work, so like most of her peers, she is postponing marriage. In a few more years, she will become a mid-level employee, be entrusted with important projects, and be given a position to lead and manage a small organization. Although she has a vague feeling that she is late in getting married and having children, when she witnesses the tragedy of a senior colleague who returned to work after maternity leave only to have her position taken by a junior colleague, she is more influenced by the desire not to waste her career than by the desire to have a child. 3. Before she knew it, she was approaching her mid-30s. Her eggs were beginning to deteriorate. Of course, as a woman, she wanted to have children. With her current income, she could raise three children. However, if she took maternity leave or childcare leave at a time when she was in a mid-career to veteran position and in a responsible role, she would definitely be thrown off course. Doing so three times in a row would be even worse. After much deliberation, she finally made the decision to give up on having children for the rest of her life. 4 Now in her 40s, she has finally achieved her dream of becoming a manager. Her income and authority have increased, and her work is going well. She is free to decide when and where to travel, and what tasks to assign to each subordinate. She meets a classmate for the first time in a long time. She is married and dependent on her husband, working a low-paid part-time job where she is told about menial tasks, being monitored and told off like a slave, and surrounded by low-level colleagues who only complain. When she hears her classmate's envious looks, she becomes more convinced that her decision to give up on having children and become a career woman was the right one, and that she is a "winner." 5 In her fifties, she went through menopause. In addition to the loss of reproductive function, her physical strength, health, senses, beauty, and intelligence began to deteriorate. Furthermore, her personality began to deteriorate, her sensitivity and consideration dulled, she became stubborn, and her popularity waned. When I heard young employees say things like, "If I don't take a chance before I'm 28, I'll never get another chance to marry someone with high specs," I was astonished, as I was reminded of my younger self. 6. In her 60s, she retired. Several people were absent from her farewell party due to conflicting commitments with important projects. She had always believed she was an indispensable part of the company, but she realized that corporate organizations never collapse, even if the president or executive suddenly dies. Instead, personnel are replaced as if nothing had happened, and the same landscape continues like the flow of a river. Furthermore, she realized that she was merely a cog in one industry, one company, and one job field. She realized that the company was not something to which she should devote herself, even at the expense of her own pursuit of personal happiness, marriage, childbirth, and family. She realized that many people in more important jobs than her managed to balance their work and personal lives. Her lifetime salary was less than her lifetime production. Then, a low-paid part-timer she once looked down upon returned home from work to find her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. She realized that, while her happiness seemed like a dream, she didn't recognize it. She began to wonder if she herself was actually a "loser." In her retirement, she reads books written by career women with similar circumstances and values, empathizes with them, and enjoys a leisurely and comfortable life, but deep down she feels something unsatisfied and unfulfilled, and she occasionally feels a sense of emptiness. 7 In her later years, she moved into a high-end nursing home. One sunny, calm afternoon, while strolling alone in her wheelchair through a quiet garden, she was finally able to honestly reflect on herself. She regretted having become a career woman, and sincerely wished that if she were to be born again, she would start a family and raise children. A few days later, she quietly passed away.

[0007] Military power is the sum of standard force and additional force. Standard force is simply the number of soldiers. If you compare standard force alone, an army of 10,000 soldiers will lose to an army of 20,000 soldiers. However, if an army of 10,000 soldiers has twice the additional force, it can fight on equal terms with an army of 20,000 soldiers. If it has more than twice the additional force, it can defeat an army of 20,000 soldiers. Additional force consists of three items: ▲1▼The combat ability of soldiers, ▲2▼The performance of weapons, and ▲3▼Intelligence gathering and operational capabilities. However, there is a limit to additional force, and once that limit is exceeded, the army with the larger number of soldiers will simply win. However, this is a classic theory of war and is no longer valid today. The reason is that weapons with infinite performance in the area of ​​▲2▼, nuclear weapons, have appeared. If nuclear weapons did not exist, humanity would have to wage war using only conventional weapons, so the country with the largest population would become the most powerful military power. Military powers are ranked in order of population. Countries with large populations position women as childbearing, child-rearing, and domestic workers, and deprive them of opportunities for education and social participation. Therefore, they lack the ideals of freedom, equality, fairness, and justice, and lack respect for women, human rights, humanity, reason, and dignity. Therefore, it would be unfortunate for humanity if such a country, backed by overwhelming military power, were to gain dominant influence in the international community and become a world leader. The current leader, despite being a small-populated country, enjoys the status of a superpower thanks to its possession of a large number of nuclear weapons, but is troubled by the problem of a declining population. The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] This invention, like the emergence of the heliocentric theory, gravity, evolution, the steam engine, automobiles, electricity, aircraft, nuclear energy, computers, IT, and AI, is an epoch-making event that requires a major paradigm shift and a change in consciousness for humanity. It will take a long time for humanity to become accustomed to it. Even in frontier nations with a pioneering spirit, a generation-long process is required from conception to social experimentation. Social experiments were first launched in ultra-advanced welfare nations like the Netherlands and Sweden, where results were carefully verified and the system gradually spread to Western countries. By the early 22nd century, at least half of countries had adopted it.

[0009] Home economics classes are held at schools with teenagers aged between 13 and 18. The content of the classes covers cooking, sewing, money management, childcare, and other topics that will be useful when students get married and start a family. The classes are divided into two areas: knowledge and practical training. Knowledge is taught to students by teachers using textbooks, electronic screens, and other teaching materials. Practical training involves students actually experiencing the content they have learned from the teaching materials. In the case of cooking, students learn about ingredients, seasonings, cooking utensils, and cooking methods, and then have them actually cook the food to learn through experience. In the case of childcare, students learn about reproduction, pregnancy, childbirth, and how to care for newborns, and then have the opportunity to actually give birth to a child and learn through experience. The most important thing here is that while knowledge learning about reproduction, pregnancy, and childbirth will be compulsory, experiential learning will be optional. Even if it is optional, there will be an examination process for approval of enrollment. The present invention has the above structure. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] 1. For women, the period from menarche to adulthood is a golden age when the best eggs are ovulated. According to cultural anthropological research, for tens of thousands of years since the origin of humanity, the majority of women had children in their teens. This is a natural law of human evolution, allowing us to effectively utilize the best eggs from women aged 13 to 18, rather than discarding them. 2 When a woman makes the mistake of becoming so focused on advancing her career that she suddenly finds herself at an age where it is difficult to have children, she would normally regret not having children. However, because she participated in the program as a young girl and has already given birth, and her children have also participated in the program and given birth, she now has many grandchildren and is overjoyed. 3 For humanity, a "society where women play an active role" and a "society with a growing population" have been a dilemma that could never be achieved together, but countries that introduce the program of this invention can achieve both. 4. Preventing population decline, maintaining it, and increasing it will not only improve social security, but also various macroeconomic indicators and international rankings, such as GDP, economic growth rate, trade balance, foreign exchange reserves, and international competitiveness. 5. A woman's body undergoes ovulation from menarche to menopause, and the later the order of ovulation, the more rapidly the eggs deteriorate. This can reduce the risk of fetal teratogenesis, intellectual and developmental disabilities, Down syndrome, LGBT, sexual perversion, sexless relationships, personality disorders, psychopathy, and other congenital abnormalities. 6. The decline of gender-respecting nations due to population decline and the expansion of gender-discriminating nations due to population growth will widen the population gap. If the former are surpassed by the latter, it will redraw the power map of religious and cultural spheres, upset the global power balance, and increase geopolitical risks. In other words, it will prevent future wars, including nuclear wars, between nations of different religions and cultures. 7. If each country reaches its set number of births, there will be no need for a system that provides funding for everyone's university education. Talented career women do not repeatedly go through pregnancy, childbirth, and child-rearing. The users of the system will be women other than talented career women. In this case, when there are fewer university graduates than job openings at large companies, a university degree is a passport to a large company. However, by the time children reach university age, the population will be in an era where everyone has a university degree, and the passport to a large company will be a top university degree or a graduate degree, leading to a series of cases where no one is hired. 8. Many adolescent boys and girls are at the peak of their sexual desires, but lacking a partner, they yearn for sexual experiences. By participating in the program and experiencing sexual experiences, their desire and fantasies about sexual experiences become weaker, and they are able to allocate more of their attention to their studies, sports, arts, and cultural activities. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0011] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The subjects taught in schools are determined by the educational administration in accordance with the circumstances of each country, but the content of the studies should be optimized to keep up with the changing times. For example, in an age where calculators, spreadsheets, and word processing software are commonly used, it is questionable to devote a large portion of class time to manual arithmetic calculations or spelling. While studying a foreign language has long been considered highly beneficial because it is useful for business negotiations with foreigners, the same cannot be said for allocating excessive time to it, even with the development of automatic voice and document translators. Furthermore, it is unclear why students should prioritize learning the grammar of a language that became extinct millennia ago, such as Latin, at the expense of time spent studying a wide range of new knowledge. Even if we memorize and expand our knowledge, we would not be able to memorize all the knowledge in the world, even if we lived for hundreds of millions of years. Therefore, the way we teach knowledge should change between an age with search engines and one without them.

[0013] Home economics classes are held at schools with teenagers aged between 13 and 18. The content of the classes covers cooking, sewing, money management, childcare, and other topics that will be useful when students get married and start a family. The classes are divided into two areas: knowledge and practical training. Knowledge is taught to students by teachers using textbooks, electronic screens, and other teaching materials. Practical training involves students actually experiencing the content they have learned from the teaching materials. In the case of cooking, students learn about ingredients, seasonings, cooking utensils, and cooking methods, and then have them actually cook the food to learn through experience. In the case of childcare, students learn about reproduction, pregnancy, childbirth, and how to care for newborns, and then have the opportunity to actually give birth to a child and learn through experience. The most important thing here is that while knowledge learning about reproduction, pregnancy, and childbirth will be compulsory, experiential learning will be optional. Even if it is optional, there will be an examination process for approval of enrollment. 1. Reproduction: There are two types of reproduction: sexual and asexual. For sexual reproduction, if a partner is available, they will be assigned by a partner; if not, the Youth Exchange Center (tentative name) will assign one. As a general rule, the pair will be students from different schools. The schedule will be based on the woman's menstrual cycle, and a sex instructor (tentative name) will provide practical instruction to the pair in a private room. If asexual reproduction is chosen, a date will be set, a large vehicle similar to a medical examination van will arrive at the school, and medical staff will insert instruments to perform the insemination procedure. Sperm donors will be selected from an unspecified number of individuals who meet certain criteria. For example, no matter how excellent the sperm of a young man named Donovan may be, reusing a specific individual will be avoided. This would create eugenic confusion for the national goal of population growth. 2 Pregnancy: Pregnancy itself is a learning experience. Students are warmly looked after by those around them, and in the latter half of pregnancy, they are exempt from sports classes and extracurricular activities. Unlike housewives who stay at home alone, students in the classroom can rest assured that if their condition suddenly worsens, those around them will respond immediately. Students will also be able to take classes remotely during the hospitalization period around the time of delivery. 3 Foster care: There are two types of foster care: in-home foster care and adoption. The method is decided in advance through a three-way meeting. In the case of in-home foster care, the parents of a preteen daughter are usually in their 40s, at the peak of their lives in terms of energy, physical strength, and financial resources. Although the child is actually a grandchild, they are welcomed into the family as if they were the youngest child, and are raised accordingly. In the case of adoption, the child is offered to infertile couples. A matching platform similar to that for donors and recipients will be used to adjust the waiting list. Information about adopted children will be made public, and mother-child interviews will be possible, but legal frameworks will also be put in place that take into consideration the feelings of the adoptive couple. The experiential learning of pregnancy and childbirth should be limited to a maximum of two times. After that, students should go on to university or graduate school, devote themselves to their work, and get married. Even if they remain single for the rest of their lives, they will have children and grandchildren, which is beneficial for both the individual and the nation. In particular, advanced welfare nations with a pioneering spirit and a love for unprecedented reform should become the front runners and expand this to other developed countries.

Claims

[Claim 1] According to the law that there is an inverse proportion between the employment rate and the birth rate of women, the more we promote the improvement of women's status and their advancement in society, the more the nation declines due to later marriage, non-marriage, declining birthrates, and a shrinking population. In order to solve this problem common to developed countries, the teenage years are medically and physically the best time for women to give birth, and at the same time, they are a moratorium period when they are protected and managed by their families and schools. In this way, educational institutions can teach teenage girls about reproduction, pregnancy, and childbirth in home economics and health classes, and those who wish can actually experience reproduction, pregnancy, and childbirth. This is a comprehensive program in which society looks after both the mother and the child that is born with love. Under the supervision of the government or a public interest corporation, this comprehensive program is characterized by having the function of defining the philosophy, objectives, policies, discipline, and rules regarding the management and operation of reproduction, pregnancy, and childbirth for teenage girls, and ensuring that they are properly implemented. This is the Career Woman Home Economics Practical Program.
