[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is my (unpopular) opinion. It would be easier to push through more generous maternal leave policies if we weren't simultaneously also trying to push through ridiculous (IMO) paternal leave policies. Companies have only so much money/time off to give. It is a zero sum game. Men do not need 12+ weeks of paternity leave. Newsflash, men and women are different![/quote] So what’s your take on an adoptive mother with a newborn? Would you be okay with her getting 12+ weeks of maternity leave? If so, please explain how that’s different from paternity leave. In both these case, neither parent needs time to heal from childbirth nor do they need time to establish a nursing schedule. I await your response.[/quote]
