Resumo: The article examines the factors that influence women’s options for motherhood, whether or not in combination with a professional career, in respectively Latvia and Portugal. The central question ties in with major concerns among policymakers in Europe, such as the low fertility rate in all of Europe and the ambition to attain a higher educational qualification for all the citizens. In view of these considerations and of the goal of providing equality of opportunities, the social and family policies have recently undergone changes to facilitate an articulation between family life and work. In the present paper the tendencies in this respect in Latvia and Portugal will be assessed, taking into account the general attitudes in society regarding the social role of mothers of young children.
