Until a couple weeks ago, I worked at a large Bay Area tech company with very generous parental leave. I noticed that a lot of people there were having kids. I think it makes sense from a conpany perspective, because having kids (and a marriage) seems to make people much more risk-averse, so they're more likely to stay at the nice, stable company. Which is helpful for the company when attrition is one of your big problems.
