    Tell you what, when men throw up 24 hours a day for 3 months straight, carry a baby for 9 months, go through a 74 hour labour & can breastfeed their babies then feel free to share the paid time off work to care for the baby. Until then, bugger off.https://twitter.com/benatipsosmori/status/1114815127147220992 …

        I’m really not. Bed-ridden for 3 months with 24 hour a day “morning sickness”. Couldn’t lift my head without throwing up. Then went into labour early on Sunday am and my daughter was born on Wed am.

        In my case the supposed "morning sickness" was 24/7 for around 6 months, abated, then returned in labour but, thankfully, labour was short. Only really after the birth did my tastebuds return & I could tolerate the smell of food &, particularly, coffee without retching.

        Actually paying fathers good money for being stay at home dad's money which the family would lose if he didn't, like they tried in Denmark. Might be the only solution we have found to solve the motherhood wage gap? Needs to be enough money most people can't afford to turn down...

        The motherhood wage gap is often the choice of women who prefer to work part time and balance work with family life. Life isn’t all about money.

        Yes but if more fathers are enabled and encouraged to be the primary carers it leads to more equality of opportunity. Some women aren't natural nurturers, some men are. For some being a parent is their favourite thing, for others it can be their biggest regret.

        Surely it’s giving the parents the option. If the woman is making more money/wants to go back after a short break she can and the father looks after the baby?

        She may well prefer it if the father got a better job and earned more money so she could stay with her baby

        Exactly. My husband couldn’t be a better father to our daughter but he didn’t want to take paternity leave. Never met a man who did.

        It should be biased towards the woman definitely, but if she had a c section then he would need to be off too.

        I had c sections both times and my husband didn’t take paternity leave. Guess what? I coped!

        My partner did. Our baby stopped breathing. The c section was performed in less time than it took for me to gown up but they tore her bladder and did other damage. Our baby survived but she spent 8 hours in theatre being patched up and could do little for months.

        Similar story to mine. I nearly died giving birth to my daughter & had to be resuscitated. My partner used up all his annual leave to look after us afterwards. I would have given anything to have had him spend more time at home.

        Likewise my wife, she didn’t have to be resuscitated but had an emergency general after complications, I took a month off and ended up having to take other days off after that month lapsed because she was still very poorly. She should’ve just “coped” though I guess.
