@HotPizza71 paid? In the US maternity leave isn't guaranteed by law for a place as small as the school I work at and it's not paid either though guess point there they are paying someone to teach my students

@HotPizza71 no it's not that way herein the US some companies have paid maternity but it's not law and there's no government assistance no big deal for me my husband makes more than enough I work cause I want to not because I have to. I like teaching and I have a family member that going to keep my twins

@HotPizza71 they will have them 8 hours a day 5 days a week til they are 18 months old during the school year that's a dumb comment. At 18 months they will start the toddler class at my school.
