Episode 6: What birth statistics indicate about how the U.S. values families
It has been just over two weeks since Baby New Year 2025 arrived, so for this sixth and final mini holiday break episode of the 2024-2025 season of Talking About Kids, I am going to discuss births, deaths, and the fetal mortality rates and maternal mortality ratios. Links to the data I cite are at talkingaboutkids.com. Full-length Talking About Kids episodes will return next week.
