Because I only ever saw Americans talk about wanting paid pregnancy leave I assumed you at least got a bit of child support from the government but after your government offered to pay women a one time cash reward for giving birth I realize that you don’t?
I mean not every single country in Europe give families child support until the child is 18 years old so I don’t know why I thought the US did. And it’s not a HUGE sum of money but enough to make life a little bit easier for families. Here in Denmark the base sum is 243 usd a month per child but you get more if the caregiver have a low income and if they have zero income it goes up with 100% because its important to the government that the child grows up to become a good worker.
Because that’s the thing. It’s not about being nice. It’s all to make good workers so our society can keep going. Again it amazes me that some countries don’t want good workers.
