The age-old conundrum of career versus kids, and how it's paid for in different corners of the planet.
In India, Yogita Limaye visits a crèche on one of the fast-growing country's burgeoning number of construction sites, while in China Jon Sudworth reports on the children tragically left behind by migrant workers.
Presenter Ed Butler also looks at some innovative approaches in the US. Is the answer infants in the workplace, as advocated by Carla Moquin of the Parenting in the Workplace Institute? Or is it elderly babysitters, per Casey Rozanski of the St Ann's Centre for Intergenerational Care?
