[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maternity leave sets up the paradigm that moms are the primary parent and household manager. If dads were expected and encouraged to take paid family leave and actually take care of the baby, it would go a long way to supporting a more egalitarian split at home. [b]I’ve noticed my Scandinavian colleagues seem to have more balanced family responsibilities, [/b]and I think this is a big factor [/quote] Funny because I’ve noticed the opposite. In fact, so much that it makes me question their push for equality as simply a way to get women to do absolutely everything. It seems even worse than here. Here my friends at least are supported financially by their husbands. My Scandinavian friends have separate bank accounts and live like roommates. They even have 50% of the mortgage coming out of each bank account. The moms are still in charge of the emotional labor. No thanks! [/quote]
