Millns, Susan. "Legislative constructions of motherhood." (Women in politics) Parliamentary Affairs v49, n1 (Jan, 1996):161 (15 pages). Abstract:

The Human Fertilization and Embryology Act, Child Support Act 1991, and Trade Union Reform and Employment Rights Act 1993 are UK laws regulating motherhood and favoring traditional heterosexual families. The child support and reproductive rights laws reinforce dependence on father-figures, while the employment legislation's failure to guarantee paternity leave reinforces traditional child-rearing roles. These laws define parenting, family relationships, and parental responsibilities along traditional lines, failing to allow women to have complete control over their roles as mothers.
