[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get your point but your argument is not quite right: don't say it out loud. [b]What I think you mean is that paid leave should be flexible to accommmodate a variety of life's challenges, including births, deaths, caregiving, and recuperation. [/b] Maternity leave is NOT a vacation or recuperation from life's/work's challenges. It's hard, and grueling, and can be awful. Presenting it as "a break" is going to get you flamed and that's fair. But it is also fair to ask for leave for caregiving when you need it. [/quote] This. I'm childfree but well aware that maternity leave isn't a vacation.[/quote]
