Which is why maternity leave without similar paternity leave is a bad idea. But apparently whoever wrote this article didn't think things through that far.

- throwaway894345 6y agoI'm all for paid paternity leave, but I've also heard that it does relatively little because men are much less likely to use it, and when they use it they use less of it.
- klipt 6y agoSome countries have had good results from making it mandatory.
- foogazi 6y agoAre there countries that force people to take leave with their children?
- manfredo 6y agoI am not aware of any country that has mandatory paternity leave. Do you have an example of this?
- CJefferson 6y agoI wonder if the grandparent meant "non-transferable" -- some countrirs have a shared pot (and then women often take all the pot), other countries enforce some amount of the pot to each parent. You do not have to take it as the man, but you lose it if you don't.
