@chrishart_official : Parenthood: For about a year now, I have dedicated myself to a much slower work schedule, for the sake of a sort of paternity leave. My son is almost 2 and half years old, and my daughter is 9 months old. When my son was born I was beginning the second half of a full 47 prefecture tour. To speak honestly, my time with my son was limited. When I found out we were going to have a second child, I knew I could not help raise a child nor do my work to the best of my abilities. So I chose to put the well being of my family first. In my situation, my family is an ocean away, and my wife’s family cannot be here 100% of the time to help us. My wife can only realistically do so much on her own. So I am on partial paternity leave while also focusing on other forms of work that allow me to work from home for the time being. It is hard. With two of us at home, it is still hard. With me doing work from home, it’s still hard. My daughter has needs far different from my son’s. Maintaining balance and face time with both children and the dog is hard. Finding time to work and study is hard. Ideally it takes more than 1 parent to raise children, and at the most ideal, it takes an entire family to raise them. I’m lucky that I can choose to take this time off, but I understand that’s not the case with everyone else. Just because it’s not the case does not mean it shouldn’t be. I believe both parents and children benefit from as much time together as possible during the first 6-12 months after a child is born. Particularly in the case of special needs children, and multiple children, the need for both parents to be around is obvious. Children eventually become adults and to best create good and productive adults, it requires cooperation of family, friends and co-workers. The more we can do for children when they are developing, the better chances are we will have better adults and a better society. At some point, I will speak more in depth about my experiences, but I hope nations
