[quote=Anonymous] This is why parental leave needs to be a federal law and set at 6 months MINIMUM. Then people can take more or less as they wish, but at least mothers won't be bothered for taking 5 months. It's so little for an infant who needs his mother to bond and start off life secure and well cared for. There are so many daycares that do a poor job caring for infants - my son was in one because we could not afford the alternative. I feel guilty to this day, and I know this is the lot of most parents. It's the lucky few who are able to afford quality care when they go back to work. I suggest you reply that Europeans have much more generous parental leave and that research has shown babies fare better when they spend more of that first year of life with their parents. [/quote]
