- Description
- From April 2015, working parents will be able to share leave after the birth of a child. Mariella Frostrup and guests debate whether this will change attitudes towards stay-at-home dads and mums who choose to go back to work. They examine whether the idea of shared parental leave is the best way to give working mothers a more fulfilling career, and whether fathers will be prepared to spend more time at home with a new baby. They discuss the tricky juggling act and financial costs of childcare and examine current research into the impact of working parents on children.
