Should fathers be offered their own allocation of parental leave?

Reporter Rotorua News

In a country that was the first to give women the vote and where our Prime Minister runs the country while her partner is the first man at home, why are we still talking about leave, primarily for women?

Why can't we instead have a conversation about paid leave for fathers?

They can currently take two weeks unpaid leave, but unless mothers transfer their maternity leave to their partners, there's nothing else on the table.

What are your thoughts on this? Should paternity leave be offered to fathers?
