01:29people they don't even have to give you the three months disability they don't have to give you that

01:35three months please I had um eight weeks and uh was it paid or unpaid 60 percent you know what

01:43better than some places do I'll tell you yeah I'll tell you um before taxes and um

01:50Caroline I got your back it's just it's so it's just very very hard it's difficult and I hate when

01:59they say you have to um go on short-term disability because you are superhuman you just had a baby

02:06that is you know you just created a human and gave birth and and then came back to work so quickly

02:13I just I wish it was different and and I'm not just saying here like I'm not just saying at Beasley

02:18I'm saying everywhere in the United States it's just terrible Canada is amazing uh guy I graduated

02:24with his wife is Canadian and they lived in the states but they moved back to Canada when she got

02:30pregnant because you get one you get both parents get six months off you can take it however you want

02:36you both do it together or mom goes first six dad goes first year you got oh you actually get to be

02:42there with your child I know this is amazing I'm reading uh this off of the International Labor

02:46Organization uh-huh and labor is spelled with a u tell you no it's serious

02:51that's how you know they're fancy 119 countries meet the ILO standard of 12 weeks with 62 countries

03:01providing 14 weeks or more of paid maternity leave 31 countries mandate maternity leave of less than 12

03:10weeks we mandate zero isn't that crazy it's so disgusting it's so bad and it's really hard I know

03:17it's really hard being a parent whether you're dad or mom but it's I think it's a little bit harder

03:22to be a mom uh I'm not biased or anything but uh I just because you get shamed if you're a working mom

03:28and you work all the time because then you're not taking care of your kids but then you're you're

03:32shamed if you stay at home and take care of your kids and not providing it's like where's the middle

03:37ground it's a tough spot it's so hard it's a tough spot and for whatever reason here we just don't

03:42want to make it any easier it's like no you know what test yourself off pull yourself up from your

03:49bootstraps everything will be fine mom yeah when will it be fine like let's just think about like

03:55our parents and then their parents were they too did your mom work my mom stayed home for the most part

04:03with us yeah and then um my brother's 10 years younger than me and when um when my brother came

04:09along my mom ended up just kind of going to work like two or three days a week just to kind of do

04:14it yeah and then once he went to school then she went to work you used to be able to pull that off
