Answer:

The United States lacks paid parental leave.

Explanation:

  • Over 40 developed and developing nations around the world have provisions protected by law to grant paid parental leave for undisturbed and unhindered early nourishment of the children.
  • The European countries like Estonia, Bulgaria, and Hungary grant strictly paid parental leaves of about 70 to 80 weeks beginning from the early months of pregnancy.
  • Despite having demanded by women activist groups from across the US, the US hasn't yet taken the issue of making provisions for paid parental leaves.
