PaternityLeave
The Stockholm macho

While in Southern Europe machism is hard to die, in Sweden the number of dads who are happy to share with the loved ones 480 days of parental leave granted by law is increasing. A phenomenon that affects in particular the Swedes with a high level of education. With obvious positive effects on marriage. Given that in couples where the man stays at home with their little ones while mom is busy at work the likelihood of divorce is reduced by as much as 30%. From the neo-father who writes a book while changing diapers to the one what tooks the opportunity to think about a future career change, the men of Stockholm all agree that having the time to look after their children is a real privilege. This is shown by a recent survey conducted by the Stockholm agency Försäkringskassan.
