Also helpful to add if you are eligible day 1or have to be there a year etc. Ours is 6 weeks (sad) for either parent including adoptive, plus 6-8 weeks short term disability for the birthing person.

@BAH1 in 2009 the total maternity leave that could be taken and was paid (full, or partial) was only 8 weeks? am I understanding that right?

Child free people should get a paid sabbatical to compensate for paternity leave

I also feel like having kids is a generic excuse to work less - always. rolling into work at 8:30 because drop off, leaving at 4 for pick up, while the rest of us are still working away. And we just accept this lol.

D18 - no they literally just prorate it for the portion of the year you were out. Before proration it was comparable to what I always get. I get the rationale but feel like it’s still a BS policy. As an SM I had significantly exceeded all my metrics in less than 6 months of work and had an absolute top right corner scatterplot. So it feels like if I got better metrics in < 6 months than many of my peers got for the full year, why should I get less of a bonus due to leave? But I have since come to peace with the fact that some policies are just BS and getting angry about it won’t actually impact anything except my own mental health.

Welcome to our pre-k inclusive classroom. Even with 8 students, and only face to face for 4 hours, we struggle. We struggle being heard through our masks. We struggle with social distancing. We struggle as we find ourselves constantly reminding students to keep their masks on. We struggle to keep them engaged and to teach. One thing we do not struggle with- building connections and showing out love for each child.
