Rejected petition Let fathers have the option for more paternity leave!
As a mother-to-be, ive been thinking a lot lately about how my baby is going to bond with her father properly when hes only entitled to 2 weeks paternity. In my opinion men should have a lot more of a choice when it comes to paternity leave, no one should be denied the chance of bonding with a baby!
