Employers must give you FMLA but do not have to pay you for the time off. When you have bio children there is a medical reason for being off but when you adopt, you are still healthy in their eyes. I took time off with my 3 bio children and am with this adoption but will have to use my vacation time or not get paid. And not getting paid is not optional for more than 2 weeks for us right now. But I requested flex time for a month and they agreed to that as well. So for about 6 weeks she will be with one or both of her parents before the transition into daycare with her sisters.
