One thought is that we could reframe the question (as e.g., Sweden has done) and work to increasing gender equality.

If the starting point is recognizing that people have kids and it takes time to care for them, and both parents have that right and obligation.

From there, one could devise policies that encourage BOTH men and women to take parental leave and invest in high-quality childcare for when that parental leave is over.

What if a parent chooses not to take that time?

Obligation? yes, right? not really
