Maybe the dads are supposed to work double shifts.

I think even just getting rid of at-will employment for expectant parents and people with dependents would provide safe incentive for having more kids.

Imagine working double shift In Japan. 70 hr work weeks is supposedly standard.

Also nothing like being a absent dad. Real traditional values.
