Fmla would be granted if you are a care giver for either your child or wife. They would need some medical diagnoses to qualify. New burns need several dr visits hence your a care giver.
Different companies have different policies for taking off during births including using sick bank.
Not correct. Federal law is that you must be employed 12 months to be eligible. Not sure what you meant about burns, etc. but a father can take paternity leave under fmla.
