Sweden: Most father-friendly country in the world? BBC News BBC News BBC News

Published on Dec 19, 2015 What's life like in the most father-friendly country in the world? Swedish parents are guaranteed 480 days of paid leave after having a baby, to be shared between mother and father (and between members of same-sex couples). But when photographer Johan Bävman went on leave after his son Viggo was born, he found himself in a very small circle: only 14 percent of fathers share parental leave equally with their partner. Mr Bävman has documented the daily lives of 45 fathers who embrace Sweden's progressive approach - his photos appear in a new book, "Swedish Dads."
