I am a teacher and in my school district, we are only allowed to use our sick days if we give birth to the baby. We are allowed to use twenty sick days. But with adoption we are only allowed to take the 12 weeks off without pay. I think it stinks but unfortunatly my district is stingy. I think it stinks because they are MY sick days to begin with. I earned them and can use them if I am sick so why not just let me use them to spend time with a new child? You would think that a school district would be more undertanding...I mean children are supposed to be our first priority.
