No paternity leave available when my kids were born. My wife was a full time doc. She got 6 weeks maternity.each time. We had a nanny on work days, but still had to be interchangeable due to call, so we were. Post call days the nanny didnt work. When the wife was on call, I was in charge. She wasn't always happy with that. On Saturdays when she was working, I would declare it Man Day where in the morning we would eat peanut butter out of the jar and watch the 3 Stooges in our underwear. Both were good athletes and kept out of trouble. One is a Doc and the other has a degree in law enforcement. They both own their own homes now and pay taxes. So whatever that bond thing is that everyone talks about, it aparently happened.My wife and I have declared victory.
