I know this guy who is taking 6 weeks off from his job, to spend some quality time with his wife and brand new Son.
He is using his earned 4 weeks vacation, and taking two additional unpaid weeks.
His wife's mother is/will be there to help out, so he will have lots of free time to doddle over his new son.
If his company had paternity leave for new father's, it would have made things easier for him, and him not having
to give up his vacation time. Paternity leave could be a benefit draw/perk to younger employees.
So should companies give new fathers paternity leave, what are the pitfalls, if any?
