Currently the United States and New Guinea are the only two countries left in the ENTIRE world that doesn't allow new mothers/fathers any paid time off unless your job allows it. In most cases though, new mothers/fathers have to give up their own time to get a few weeks of either paid or unpaid leave and it only allows up to 5-6 weeks. Something isn't right with this - it takes a woman 9 months to create and develop and fetus to term but we are only granted 5-6 weeks of either paid or unpaid leave. Adoption processes can take even longer and the same process of 5-6 weeks off is granted and sometimes with even more limitations. This is unfair treatment of new mothers/fathers who are basically forced to shorten their time bonding with their child all to make quotas. GIVE US MORE PAID TIME!!
