Norway gets 49 weeks at full salary.
We get 12 weeks unpaid if your company is big enough to qualify.
So a mother has a baby.
Takes 12 weeks unpaid.
Goes back to work because she can’t afford not to.
Pays $1,500 a month for daycare because there’s no public option.
Works to pay for childcare so she can go to work.
And we put a pink ribbon on everything and call it supporting mothers.
