[quote=Anonymous]The thing is, this isn't really connected with your maternity leave. It's not asking for leave because of your kid situation, it's asking for leave because of your husband and travel situation. I actually DO think that it's a little annoying to ask for a month of teleworking leave after a long maternity leave where other people in your office are not getting similar amounts of time off. I can understand why your husband wants you to do this (not wanting to be away from his kids that long and wanting to share the experience with you, I'd guess), but I think it's too bad he's not accepting that the ask obviously puts you in an awkward position with your employer. Do you actually WANT to do this? If you're not that keen on it, I wouldn't. If you'd actually like to, I'd ask, but make it clear that you totally understand if your employer would rather not permit this leave at this time. [/quote]
