I have just found out that the fact my DP is self employed means that he will not get the 2 weeks statutory paternity pay like an employed man would. This did not affect us the first time around as he was employed.
This really disgusts me as he has paid his N.I and income tax since he left school. So Therefore why does he not get the same statutory rights as an employed man?
The government offers Maternity allowance for women who do not qualify for S.M.P but why not men?
I am hoping I give birth on a Friday at least then he can have 2 days at home with his new born!!!
