OP, my kiddo was born last January so I went through this. Talk to your teams AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I took 2 weeks off when my kid was born, then worked busy season, and took the summer off. Highly recommend it as my daughter was a few months older. Precious time I’ll cherish forever.

How do I navigate planning my leave? Do I just tell my team when I plan to take the 16 week? Or should I get team input first - i.e., whether to space it out or take it all at once, and adjust to facilitate future projects?

What changed in the 12/18 policy?

You no longer have to be primary caregiver to take it. Under old policy you had to be primary caregiver to take the 16 wk leave meaning your spouse had to return to work.

Let your team know ASAP. In terms of their opinions of you talking any/all of the leave, do you really care? Family > Work.

Agree. It’s a firm benefit, not a favor. While you should obviously keep everyone informed, it’s up to you, not your team.

Do you think all these violent and hate filled attacks are because people aren't getting the emotional/mental support they need, whether it's therapy at any age or help they needed but didn't get from a social worker as a child? My coworker is sure this is the case, but I honestly think there's actually something deeper wrong either with how these people are being raised as children, or how the warning signs these people give off are ignored or swept under the rug to save face.
