f a woman NEEDS 3+ months to recover from delivery, then she needs to find work elsewhere when she is able.
What ? Maybe in this wonderful country some women don’t NEED to find work elsewhere...Guess Megan just WANTED to go back to Fox...her choice...big deal....
3 months is nothing when breastfeeding a newborn, recovering from either normal vaginal ( sorry guys) delivery or a c/section ( which is, by the way, the most invasive common surgery after open heart- try that with a newborn, gentlemen)Many on this thread scoffed at the idea of “needing 3 months “ for recovery...It’s just the civilized, family-friendly thing to do...and NO I didn’t support the Family Leave Act . I think it should be between the employer and employee.Hopefully the employer is not a NEANDERTHAL like so many of you ... I am shocked by some of the responses....ashamed of some of you to be honest....geeeesh....glad I’m not married to any of you....yuck....
My wife had a C-section, and was shopping (by her choice) 2 days later. A month later, I deployed to Saudi again and she handled the house & 3 teens.
What Fox does for benefits is their business, but Megyn wants it to be a requirement. If you can afford to go without someone for 3 months, why do you need them at all? And if you have to hire a temp while paying someone else a salary, then you have just created a reason to hire men instead of women.
