Hi moms,

Does anyone know of any couples who shared parental leave? I am a mom of 2 and PhD student doing my dissertation on fathers that take parental leave for at least 6 weeks. There is very little research in Canada about this trend and I seeking couples who would like to share their story and perceptions about the experience.

The time commitment is somewhat lengthy (2+ hrs) but it would be a great help to me and to growing the academic literature on this subject. Plus I am sure you all know how easy (and interesting!) it is to discuss your kids and parenting choices. Also doesn't hurt that I will bring a bottle of wine (or dessert) as my thank you for participating.

Please feel to reply here, pm me, or email me at jbeglaubter@gmail.com if you or someone you know might be interested in participating. Many Thanks!
