ABSTRACT: Parents are the bearers and investors of their children’s
education expenditures. It is important to discuss the impact of mothers’ labor
participation on the educational investment behavior of families. Actually.
This paper uses the 2010 Chinese Family Panel Studies (CFPS) questionnaire data
to conduct an empirical analysis of the impact of mother labor participation on
family education investment behavior. The education level of parents is an
important factor that affects children’s performance, but the labor
participation status of mothers affects children’s academic performance by
affecting family education expenditure.
