Compared to advanced countries, childcare leave subsidies have been slow in coming to Taiwan. Their passage in this time of high unemployment testifies to the government's concern for women and determination to raise the birthrate. But it will take effort from all concerned for these subsidies to become more than "look but don't touch."
然而，較諸先進國家，台灣的職場育嬰津貼其實是「遲來的幸福」；而在失業率飆高的此刻勉強通過，雖展現政府關懷女性、提高生育率的決心，但如何避免「看得到卻吃不到」，仍有待各界努力。
