EU is having a baby? Who's the father?
Seriously, let me check that out, parental leave, if valid for both parents, is good.
Right.
It's good in my world.

I think it is a good thing for people to be paid to take care of their kids in those first vital months. It is also good that parents get a chance to get themselves over that first 3-4 months of sleepless nights, so they can be fit to work again after that adjustment time off.
Putting that initial imprint on your child's upbringing is vital for family bonding and needs the time for that to happen. That extra time ensures employers the full attention of their employees on their return to work, since they are not lacking concentration through lack of sleep, or worrying about how the child is doing, in either day care, or with a nanny/stranger.
Ther are many other benefits to giving longer leave too but I am sure others will come up with some of them.
mike69spain: Right.

I really think, and it is important in the very case you mention, that each family makes up their own mind.
It may very well be the bills, but just as much opinion, life style and ongoing career that plays in.
I do not believe in forcing both parents to be sharing it, that does not make sense, forced equality is ridiculous as it only creates a "contra force"...
Four months is better than three, but three is already good. A law makes sure employers will have to adjust and allow for it without damage to the position of the parent on leave.
