Living in Germany - Motherhood and Raising Children in Germany

In this video, I discuss the multifaceted topic of motherhood and raising children in Germany. Providing support for mothers, children and family-units is incredibly important for the well-being of individuals and society. I make many comparisons between the US and German social and political institutions.

In my video, I disucss the following topics:
1. Pregnancy - 2:09
2. Childbirth 5:18
3. Parental Leave 11:29
4. Young Children 14:42

As promised in the video, here are some sources that discuss the importance of parental leave:
