That really sounds unfortunate. What's the "normal" time off in there? I think the kids will always be okay, it's more about the parents and their feelings.. when you don't want to miss out anything. But you are right, letting go is important too, though it's super hard.

"Normal" for a mom is 6-8 weeks. For a dad, maybe 2-6 weeks.
Recently, some private companies are extending to a "long" 16 week program, but that's still somewhat rare to see from a company.
At least these are the lengths of time where a parent will continue to be paid while they are away from work.
