Taking paternity leave is one of the best things a new father can do. Among the many benefits, dads who take leave from work tend to be more confident in their parenting, build a better emotional bond with their child, and have a stronger relationship with their significant other. More generally, paternity leave allows men to experience some of the most fulfilling weeks of their lives. In short: If you have a baby on the way, you should take it. But you need to make plans to do it — which is easier in some work situations than others. So, when you do need to talk to your superior about your leave, it’s important to do your research. |
