Parents experience greater meaning in life, study confirms

A recent study by sociologists at the University of Cologne reveals a paradox: parents find life more meaningful than childfree individuals, yet report lower life satisfaction. This disparity, highlighted in the Journal of Marriage and Family, stems from challenges exacerbated by inadequate family policies. Scandinavian countries, with robust childcare and parental support, show minimal difference in satisfaction between parents and non-parents.
