[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP do you realize that many women don’t even get to take 8 weeks off work after giving birth, never mind their spouses taking 8 weeks off for non-existent paternity leave.  Your entire post is tone deaf [/quote]

This has nothing to do with OPs post. [/quote]

Sure it does, since her husband’s level of involvement has a whole to do with him taking 2 months off work[/quote]

Yes, the lack of parental leave in this country is terrible and if people had more time off work that probably would lead to more involved parenting. However, my husband got zero parental leave and he’s one of the most involved dads I know. It’s not dependent on leave although surely leave would help.[/quote]

He took 2 months off and now he is “back to work”...from home. So yes, his level of involvement can be very high.  But surely OP realizes this is not a comparable scenario to what many people experience, you know, where there is either no or little time off for dad and dad has to actually leave the house from work and be gone all day.
