That's assuming the country providing the "security guarantee" will actually do what they say they will when worse comes to worst. These days, that's a BIG assumption.

Truth. Although at least FMLA allows us to not get fired during the 12 weeks after having a kid. You just won't get paid, assuming you haven't already used your FMLA time in that calendar year. Hopefully, you weren't stuck on bedrest during the pregnancy because you only get up to 12 weeks. Period. And that's whether it's used before or after the kid's birth. Also, if you've been working for your current employer for less than a year, you get nothing.

FREEDOM!!!!!..... hooray....

You're not wrong. The link seems to be based on a couple who are very pro-babies sending the idea of the mother medal to the Trump administration. Then, the article talks about how conservatives are trying to change the national dialogue about having kids and showed several quotes posted on social media saying why having babies is great.

The author of the article seems to be the one who made the link. They probably aren't wrong, but it wasn't the Trump admin who came up with it or started talking about it.
