Work-Life Law
The New York Times Magazine has a really fascinating and in-depth article on the recent wave of employment discrimination cases based on parental needs. There is an especially interesting part about a state trooper who had to sue his employer in order to take the FMLA leave he was entitled to after his wife became ill during her pregnancy.
The article also gives some background on Joan Williams, founder of the Center for Work-Life Law, which has made amazing strides on behalf of parents in the workplace.
