- jbob2000 8y agoThey don't, we should be free to choose. I just don't want to be forced to take time off.
- snvzz 8y agoSo why not take the time off sometime else? One possible solution is to make the maternity/paternity leave mandatory "within a year" rather than immediately. Also, keep in mind you're not, in any event, being forced. It's your choice whether to have kids or not.
- jbob2000 8y agoRight! The decision to have a child is between my partner and I, and as such, the decision to care for it should be between us as well. What if my partner wants to be a stay at home parent? If that were the case, forcing the working parent to take time off would be a complete waste.
