How many men are actually utlilizing paternity leave for what it is meant, and how many are the 1. burden at home or 2. using it as a vacation time. 3. Is it leading to men demanding more children from their wives. 4. Is paternity leave making home culture more toxic and ruining women's health or making things better at home for majority of the cases.

A lot of men at Novartis still do not take up the paterntiy leave fully - and a lot of times it is because of their management. But the numbers are increasing. Do you have children? Having an extra set of hands (ie- having the father fully present) during the first 6 months of having a baby is incredibly helpful and beneficial. The situations which you describe is true for men who are patriarchal and regressive - they would continue to make homes toxic and demand more children from their wives even if they didn't get 6 months off. In the grand scheme of things, gender neutral parental leave ensure that men understand how difficult raising children is and thus they are more empatheric to women in the workforce when they need time off or have childcare responsibilities. Another advantage is, it ensures babies bond with the father - thus in the future in families where both parents work, even if mothers have to go away for work, the fathers know how to take care of their own child!
