"Dream - Maternity leave for pregnant women and childbirth has long been implemented in Indonesia. What about paternity leave?"
Friends of Dream might have heard that some time ago, there was an incident where the pilot and co-pilot of Batik Air on the Kendari-Jakarta route fell asleep for 28 minutes during the flight.
The flight co-pilot turned out to be exhausted after taking care of his newborn twins with his wife at the hospital and then having to go to work. Taking care of a newborn baby is indeed quite heavy. A mother who has just given birth, her body and psychology are still in the recovery period. Not to mention breast pain from breastfeeding, and also having to take care of older children. The mother's psychology is sometimes unstable and she really needs the father as a team to take care of the children.
Many studies reveal that paternity leave or paternity leave has many benefits. Several Scandinavian countries such as Sweden, Norway, and Iceland have implemented this policy for fathers, both paid and unpaid leave.
For Indonesia itself, this father's leave is planned to be implemented for Civil Servants (ASN). There may still be many who are confused about what benefits this leave has for fathers when their child is born. Here are some incredible benefits of father's leave that have an extraordinary effect on the child and family.
A recent study conducted by the Pew Research Center shows that nearly 46% of fathers feel they do not have enough time to spend with their children. Fathers in other countries that have well-paid paternity leave programs, such as Sweden and Germany, feel more bonding with their children and are more involved in their children's lives.
Paternity Leave will also help fathers adjust to the new conditions within the family. This is related to the cooperation in taking care of the baby, which can wake up early in the morning when the mother is very tired and the father has to take over the baby. Also, when the baby is sick or in unpredictable situations at home. With the existence of leave moments, fathers are expected to adjust to their larger roles and responsibilities.
Most fathers only take leave for about one to three days when their child is born. This moment usually focuses more on taking care of the mother and baby's needs and handling administrative tasks. Fathers have to go back to work and do not have time to provide stimulation for their child's growth and development.
With leave, fathers can be more actively involved in childcare and stimulate their children's growth and development. The more fathers take leave, it will reduce social stigma for all fathers who want to be more involved in their children's growth and development, and set a higher standard.
