So at least in Sweden you have a right to get back to "the same or equal position" after parental leave. And most people here are away much longer than 5 months.

Most mothers take one year off. And most other half probably are in the 8-12 months as well.

The problem is that it’s easy to play games on what ‘same or equal’ position means - many terrible employers in the US will do them too.
