Yes....I’m a cold and dark monster of a person. Sue me.
No you are not, just a realist. If there is not a medical or child care reason to not be home get the heck out. What you should do is be there 24 hours a day when you are home. When home you get up and take care of the baby. You clean the house, make the meals and do the laundry etc. AND make time to take your wife out on a date. You cannot do all that if you take FMLA and are stuck in the baby vortice. You will be just as tired and miserable as mama.
