Mothers should get their income tax refunded for the previous 9 months. Easy to adminster and scales to salary

 @B2WGS2Xanswered…1wk1W

Yes, it should increase based on the wage of the parent that is taking the leave, not just the mother, as there are circumstances where other parental figures would require leave during this time, for instance, if the mother was not capable of taking care of the child due to illness.

 @B2HKZTHanswered…4wks4W

Yes, and the limit of $150,000 income to be able to access it should also be lifted due to cost of living increases.

No, but parental leave should be available to both parents from their employer based on their current rate of pay, in addition to a universal parental payment system from the government for singles (and additional accounts for couples), regardless of gender or sexual orientation.

 @9RN8DTCanswered…7mos7MO

Parental leave payments should be payed by the employer at 100% of their normal wage. Should apply to both mothers and fathers

 @9GJ9TLManswered…1yr1Y

Parental leave should be higher in all positions, preferably the max amount of money available whether that's the same for everyone or not.
