This is old and/or incorrect. Sweden should really be included, since we have 480 (~70 weeks) days of paid leave for one child. Finland and Denmark has 50 weeks, and Norway has 59.
In a household with two parents you get 240 days each, and if you're a single household you get all 480 days.
It should absolutely be guaranteed in the US, too.
But good luck getting any law to pass that gives it. It'll turn into rage over increased taxes to cover it, and it'll fall apart. (Meanwhile, more tax cuts for rich folks)
Now prepare for a heart attack - also paternity leave. (It is usually less however)
