We don't have enough support for maternal leave and the kinds of things that some of the European countries do. So we still make it hard on women to go into the work force and feel that they can be good at work but then doing the most important job, which is raising your children in a responsible and positive way.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the lack of support for maternal leave and other benefits provided to working mothers in comparison to European countries. It suggests that the existing system makes it challenging for women to balance their careers and their responsibilities as mothers. By not adequately supporting them in the workforce while also enabling them to fulfill their critical role of raising children in a responsible and positive manner, society hinders women in achieving success in both areas.
