Yes, support does not have to be financial. If you read the entire article you posted note the experts quoted made the same point: opportunity cost is real. Career impact is real. The shift to getting educated and established in a career is real.

Societies have to address many different sources of no because the only reason rates used to be higher in the past was women not having a choice.
