Abstract: Social polarisation age at motherhood. Later childbearing since 1970 has not affected all social groups equally. Disadvantaged women tend to have children earlier. Are their children also at a disadvantage? How far are any disadvantages in children of young mothers reflections of their mothers’ age or their antecedent experience?
