Commenting on your post about paternity leave as I can’t find a way to comment on it, paternity leave is fucking ESSENTIAL when you have a newborn and other tiny kids!!!!!!! I have 3 under 3 and I can’t lift the older ones for quite some time. Let alone the heavy washing baskets full of wet laundry and nappies I deal with multiple times a day. Not every family has the fucking ridiculous luxury of extended family help and women postpartum are just left to fend for ourselves. Prolapse is an extremely real risk and very very common. It is debilitating and destroys your mental health. I am doing everything I can to protect my pelvic floor and have actually done the research into what is safe and what is not. There is a reason other cultures have a long lying in period for mothers to rest while others help with the house and care for other kids. Postpartum recovery is SUPER fucked up when you have literally no help and multiple toddlers to deal with. Having your first baby is a cake walk compared to this. And maybe that’s the problem. These so called “conservatives” don’t practise what they preach and follow through on having muh trad big family. Lmao. They have zero clue and no insight at all. No wonder big families are fucking rare. What delusional privileged pieces of shit these men are. I bet they have an entire support network under roof so I guarantee they’re sitting on their padded asses with enough time to shitpost on fucking Twitter of all places about how EASY everything is. Sick of the right. All sides of politics are exactly the same. All hate women and especially mothers. There is no empathy, compassion, consideration, care or even space in society for us anymore. Middle fingers up.
Oh and I bet these are the same low leveled embarrassments of parents who can’t even HANDLE their own kids alone while out without a whole entourage present to go buy groceries. Can’t even cope with their own kids in public without at least a 3:1 adult to child ratio!!!! HAHAHHAA
Also commenting on your paternity leave article. The point of paternity leave it so that the father can help the mother because she is recovering from a grueling and difficult process of being pregnant for so long and giving birth. In the case of the transportation secretary neither he nor his husband gave birth. Neither is recovering from anything. They have the money and resources to hire people to clean for them and cook for them. Pete has a high-level job and there’s a crisis in the country. His job is so important it doesn’t allow for two month vacation. If he can’t go along with the needs of the job he has then he needs to give it up to someone who can be there on a 24 hour notice when crises occur. His job is not a desk job. He is not performing his vital job and the country is having critical shortages.
Parents should take whatever time they need, to bond with their new child. They can save for that from the moment they decide they want to have children. Taking other people's money for that is immoral.
