Disgraceful. Even in Ireland both adoptive parents get at least 2 weeks paid adoption leave (one of them gets 6 months paid). And you rarely get free stuff if you pay taxes in this country. I’m not sure what the laws are in Argentina with regards to adoption leave for opposite sex couples, but the amount should be the same for every couple.

I acknowledge that parental leave is expensive. It can kill small businesses. But instead, why doesn’t society treat parental and adoption leave like a pension - every employee pays into their own leave so that it’s there when he or she becomes a parent, and if he/she never becomes a parent, they’ll get it back as a pension.
