Ep. 12 - ”Dads don’t babysit” with author David Freed

In his new book Dads Don’t Babysit, author David Freed considers everything from parental leave to the pay gap to ask why fathers are sometimes unwilling, but more often unable to share the pleasures of parenting. He himself took Shared Parental Leave with his wife Charlotte when their son was born in 2015 as a joint decision toward more equal parenting in their family. In this podcast episode, he talks about the benefits – and challenges – of Shared Parental Leave on family life, gender expectations and the business landscape at large.
