I think there should be more leave but it needs very strong federal subsidies.
I worked with someone from a European company working in the USA. She started her full time job here while she was on an 8 month maternity leave from her old European company (which she didn't plan on returning to afterwards). It would be fucked if her old company had to eat 8 months expenses and then not even have an employee returning back after.
- yeetman21 5y agoDoes that not encourage people to then become baby factories? If you know you get 8 months paid leave every time you had a baby, why would any man or woman go to work again? They would just sit at home and breed.
- sjg007 5y agoUnlikely. 8 months of paid parental leave would not encourage multiple births considering the true cost of raising kids. You've got to clothe, feed, and house them. But we are also in population decline and that is worse than having decent parental leave.
