    French people have a reputation for being pessimistic and yet they have a lot of babies. In fact, France is the baby-making champion of Europe. Some say it's a model for countries struggling with a quickly-ageing and ever-shrinking population. So what explains this "French exception" and is it sustainable? And what is it like to have children in France? Join us for this episode of French Connections Plus where we unveil the secret to bringing up baby à la française.

    Many clichés and false observations..As a foreigner living in France for 13 years, I can attest to that. 1. All my French friends have not more than 2 kids... 2. French kids are kids like any other... i.e. They dont like eating vegetables, they dont eat everything and prefer bonbons...3. Too short maternity leave is stressful for many mothers... 4. Not everyone gets help to raise kids, only people with low income get government help. For e.g. I never got a cent for my kids, had to pay 5 times more for a crèche than French French people with low income.... Wish you could do more research before putting this segment...

    I don't know about that,

    Paternity leave is very strange.
    Because plenty of children don't need more playmates.

    Maybe they meant,
    "Sign up for a loan
    because life without teaching is terrible."

    Ouch.
    Maybe that's what happens to some Vietnamese moms who have an enabling husband.

    Who are making all those babies? I am guessing it is the muslim women. That of course will be great for France. Je suis Charlie.

    There wasn't really a way to stop French males from having as many kids as possible.
    So it's more opposite from "hip hop culture."

    People like my relatives like to eat

    Overpopulation is not a solution.
    A vibrant growing economy must not be tied to a growing population. Economist must change.

    Theses comments are ignorant, most muslim or black French children have parents that are either non-French citizens or were born outside France. Under French law, they can't claim French citizenship until they're 18 years old. So most minority families in France don't benefit from this.
    Use your brain

      Any French resident or citizen can claim child benefits. So your argument makes zero sense. The American in the video disputes your whole argument but you don’t see the irony.

    "French" women have many kids because they are not European and they are from Africa.
