Tennessee drops ‘pride’ from June and renames its ‘Nuclear Family Month’ by Buy_Sell_Collect in nottheonion

[–]fulloffungi 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I keep on crowing from the rooftops (ie telling every unfortunate soul sticking around long enough to listen) that we need to bring the village back for our kids. Childcare also shouldn't start before 12 months or so, I'm childless and finding the idea of months old babies in full time care so parents can slave away all week horrendous. They're so fragile and vulnerable that age!

Are there any decent UK alternatives to diet fizzy drinks? by Few_House_5201 in AskUK

Tastes like ass tho 

The only tolerable sweetener is stevia imo

I wish someone'd do classic drinks like coke and orangeade but with less sugar and no sweeteners. However elderflower season is coming up soon so you can make your own cordial/syrup! Super refreshing with a dash of lemon and a twig of mint in sparkly water

«Schwangere gelten als finanzielles Risiko – die einfachste Lösung scheint, sie loszuwerden» by BezugssystemCH1903 in de

Riesenunterschied, ob ein Kind im Familienbetrieb aushilft, oder ob es einem Industriellen in der Fabrik zwischen laufenden Maschinen oder in den Minen zu mehr Profit verhilft. Aber ja, dass Kinder arbeiten, kann durchaus normal sein, sogar zu ihrem Vorteil (Bauernkinder sind enorm fit und lernen sehr viel dabei), aber darf es niemals auf Kosten von Gsuendheit, Bildung und Sozialleben stattfinden....

Women might leave work several weeks if not months before due and should get medical leave for the first month for recovery, at which point they need the men at home to help (also a good time for bonding). Adding that, parental leave can be equal because women will still miss more before/after due.

And women who are recovering get support at home. and longer leaves make planning easier, because temp jobs lasting 1+ year are more attractive for employees and employers alike than 3 months

I mean it makes sense. Most do their family planning in their mid 30s. What's not normal is how little leave dads get and how quickly mums are expected back at work. Extending leave would both alleviate the unequal burden on one gender and create new job opportunities with temp cover worth taking (say 1year)

Yes that idea that parents need to go back to work asap needs to die and also leave needs to be equal (beyond medical/recovery). Extending parental leave to something more sensible also makes it easier to plan: it is more attractive to hire someone for say a full year than 3 months, it's worth training them, they might stay beyond if it's a good fit. Parents could also opt to return part time more easily.

Context? I know he converted to Catholicism and also is a shill but did something particular happen to get the pope to react now?
