Minder tijd voor je baby?! Kabinet schrapt verlof

So apparently the Dutch government wants to cut back on parental leave, and not everyone is happy about it. Interesting timing, right? In this episode, Tom, Julia and I talk about the kabinetsplannen to make ouderschapsverlof less generous. Some people say it's a step backwards for gender equality. We keep it simple, break down the key words, and chat about what this actually means for families in Nederland. Here's my question for you: if you lived in the Netherlands, would parental leave be important to you? Or maybe you already have kids - how does it work where you are now? This one's got some useful vocabulary for talking about work, family, and those big maatschappelijke discussions. Kleine stappen tellen, remember? Even just understanding the topic is al heel goed.
