A little change for precious moments

Parents are the divine gift, and both father and mother play a very important role in the life of a child. It's the most precious moment for parents when a new baby comes into their life. During that time, it's very good to spend quality time with a newborn baby, which helps to make a strong bond with the baby. In my country, mothers receive maternity leave for 26 weeks, but there is no such facility for fathers. Today I am going to discuss about everything based on my country's situation. So it can be different from other countries.

I already said that the mother receives 26 weeks of maternity leave from her job. I think it's necessary, as the mother needs time to recover fully and needs proper rest. Maintaining health is important because it's related to the food of newborn babies, and breastfeeding is the primary source of it. So, considering the overall situation, 6 months is quite reasonable. But do you know that most of the mothers in my country are housewives? So for most mothers, it does not create any significant impact during the time of conceiving. So in my country, such a system isn't so effective for most of the family.

Let's talk about the father in such a situation. Fifteen to eighteen years ago, if someone asked me if there was any necessity for such kind of leave, I would say it wasn't necessary because, as well as I know, the father was not so concerned about taking care of the baby and the baby's mother. Usually, the baby's grandmother or aunt used to take care of their mother and their grandson. Fathers used to play a neutral role, but the situation changed, and now fathers are very concerned about their baby and their wife. Besides, they play a good role in supporting (mental support) the wife during the time of conceiving. But to earn, they need to go to work, and in that case, fathers can't support their wives well even if they want to.

After giving birth to a baby, mothers need to take enough rest, but it's not so easy for a mother to maintain it, especially in the first month, which I want to say is a sensitive period for a baby and mother both. Moreover, a newborn baby doesn't maintain any schedule😅, and for a mother, it's indeed difficult to rest unless someone takes care of the baby. Now fathers also understand it well, and they play a good role and help their wives, like helping with cooking, taking care of the baby, and so many other things. @gwajnberg played such a role, and I appreciate him for sharing it with us. At last, I believe that those are the most precious moments for a father, and they should not miss them. I am not married yet, but some of my cousin's babies made me feel special. Just imagine how special it is for a father. I think I need to wait for it unless it becomes my time.

So I think fathers also deserve a leave from offline work, at least for 2 months. It's very much possible to provide online service also in this digital world. In this way, the office work will not be hampered, and at home, he can fulfill his duty as a father. I just tried to find an easy way, and it's just providing service online, which was done during the time of the pandemic also.
