What does paid parental leave look like in the US vs Canada?
In today's episode of the Curious Neuron podcast, I chatted with Amira Allen, Ph.D. and visiting professor at Drake University along with 3 parents (2 moms and 1 dad).
We discuss the research behind paid leave and the benefits it brings to not only the parents but the children as well.
However, we all know the benefits of paid leave, but do you know how many months many parents (moms or dads) get in Canada? Do you know how many weeks most parents (moms and dads) get in the United States?
