This 3 years seems to be not directly comparable, because it's not all fully paid, and there are limits to how much pay you can get. Seems like it's ~$2k/month

This 3 years seems to be not directly comparable, because it's not all fully paid, and there are limits to how much pay you can get. Seems like it's ~$2k/month max. That's not very much--maybe that's why only "38 percent of dads [in Germany] of children under six chose to take parental leave at all". I guess they don't value their kids either?
