Wow, congratulations. Apple in late 2014 is now offering the amount of maternity leave (which we don't know if paid or unpaid) that has been enjoyed in most European countries for several years as a matter of law.
The laws are different in the US (wish they weren't). Getting this much leave is a big deal for Americans.
It'd be more helpful if you encouraged rather than criticized, as if this becomes respected and accepted, more US companies will embrace the policy (and maybe the US can finally come into the first world 21st century and make this kind of thing law).
