Abstract: This work analyses the effect of the family as an institution in the education of young people of both sexes and in their access to jobs. It also explores the differential features of the bilingual autonomous Communities in Catalan (Baleares, Cataluña and Valencia), Basque (Navarra and País Vasco) and Galician (Galicia). The results obtained with the Labour Force Survey (EPA) concords with the family economic theory on quantity and quality of children and, furthermore, they denote higher level of education and smaller presence of women in the labour market. At he same time, occupational behaviours become more uniform and differences in the education of males increase. Certain singularities are appreciated in the bilingual autonomous communities, albeit for reasons that have nothing to do with bilingualism. These are: (i) lower fertility, (ii) shorter schooling periods in the Catalan-speaking communities and longer schooling in the Galician-speaking and above all, Basque-speaking communities and (iii) a greater heterogeneity in the occupational processes: it is verified that a youth will manage to get a job sooner in Catalonia and much later in the Basque Country, where young people seem to suffer from a greater job-precariousness.
