Lol fathers too, I think. Paternal leave should be just as acceptable as maternal.
-
I agree, dad should take paternal leave. However, they are only rewarded at work with promotions and pay bumps, 'cause you got a family to support. Guess what, moms have families to support to.

Typical nuclear family unit. A husband & a wife & child. Husband works long hours effort rewarded no question of devotion to family. Wife works long hours she is viewed as putting professional advancement ahead of family. We need a new dialog.
-
Esp since that "traditional nuclear family" with Dad going off to work and Mom staying home. Most Moms have an outside job, AND do all the "traditional" Mom stuff as well
-
Even that has changed. Men are way more engaged in domestic responsibly then a generation ago. It's up to perents to teach both sons & daughters all the life skills they will be expected to have when they become adults.

Against women. Against equal pay. Where have you been?
-
Solution is simple, but ridiculously lacking in implementation for most businesses: make the business of being a mother easier to balance w/ other job she loves...support & facilities for breastfeeding moms, on-site child care, etc. I had these 19 years ago; I know they work.
-
If MEN had these basic, integral needs in the workplace, no question that an entire support system for working families would have been implemented in workplaces DECADES ago. 2/2

I think it depends on work ethic more then anything. I have worked with some that literally just show up to work to sit and rub they're tummies. That's a problem if the job requires they're help.
-
True, we have one who rubs her tummy from morning then dissapear at 3pm.

2 equals have same job and same work ethic, 1 male, 1 female. Female becomes pregnant, is off work for a year. Male keeps working. Woman comes back but now has to leave at 5pm, male continues to work late. Who do you promote in your business? A baby is a choice, live with it
-
Damn that's harsh

Duh! This isn't news to most women. Whether white collar or blue collar. It's not about leaning in.

They are late to work kid issues, the kids are sick they call out, no sitter they call out. Can’t work OT after school programs or issues. These are many of the issues that are seen daily as a manager. I got promoted 4 yrs ago. After paying my dues but I am still underpaid.
-
Where are the dads?
-
Working or not in the picture unless they feel like it.

At my former company, the minute a woman because pregnant, supervisors starting saying, “Oh, she won’t come back after the baby,” etc. They undermined women before they even went on maternity leave.
-
Both men and women supervisors!
-
Yes, 100%.
