Mientras en los países de Europa Occidental y Norteamérica la falta de empleo parece retrasar la salida de los jóvenes del hogar paterno, en México inician su transición a la edad adulta incorporándose al mercado laboral. Algunos se insertan en la actividad económica empleándose como mano de obra secundaria y como parte de una estrategia familiar de sobrevivencia, en cuyo caso su inicio en la vida laboral busca ante todo contribuir a la economía familiar y no necesariamente lograr la independencia económica. En tal contexto el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el efecto que ocasiona en los jóvenes mexicanos el iniciar la vida laboral al salir del hogar paterno. Se analiza por separado a los jóvenes que dejan el hogar paterno por iniciar una unión conyugal y a los que lo hacen por otra razón. Excluyendo las características individuales y familiares particulares, se encuentra que la incorporación laboral está relacionada en forma fuerte y positiva con la salida del hogar paterno en ambos tipos de partida, pero es más importante entre aquellos que salen por una vía distinta a la unión en pareja. AbstractWhereas in Western European and North American countries the lack of employment appears to be delaying the age when young people leave the parental home, in Mexico youth begins it transition to adulthood by joining the labor market. Some are incorporated into economic activity by being employed as secondary labor, and part of a family survival strategy, in which case the start of their working lives seeks primarily to contribute to the family economy, rather than to achieve economic independence. In this context, the aim of this paper is to analyze the effect on Mexican youth of leaving the parental home once they start work. Young people that leave the parental home to start a conjugal union are analyzed separately from those that leave home for other reasons. Excluding particular individual and familial characteristics, the author finds that starting work is strongly and positively linked to leaving the parental home in both kinds of departure, but particularly so among those that leave home for other reasons than to begin living with their partners.

Almost 50 per cent of the world population is constituted by the women and they have been making substantial contribution to socio-economic development. But, unfortunately their tremendous contribution remains unrecognized and unnoticed in most of the developing and least developed countries causing the problem of poverty among them. Empowering women has become the key element in the development of an economy. With women moving forward, the family moves, the village moves and the nation moves. Hence, improving the status of women by way of their economic empowerment is highly called for. Entrepreneurship is a key tool for the economic empowerment of women around the world for alleviating poverty. Entrepreneurship is now widely recognized as a tool of economic development in India also. In this paper I have tried to discuss the reasons and role of Women Entrepreneurship with the help of Push and Pull factors. In the last I have also discussed the problems and the road map of Women Entrepreneurs development in India.
