Dove is offering $5,000 to dads without parental leave at their jobs.

The workplace has daddy issues. While it’s common for a new mother to take maternity leave postpartum, there’s still a stigma surrounding paternity leave.

Most dads don’t have access to paid time off to experience their child’s crucial first few weeks of life. Furthermore, they feel as if their jobs might be in jeopardy if they do opt to spend time with their bundle of joy.

In order to combat the stigma around paternity leave, Dove Men+Care is offering $5,000 to new dads planning to take full-time paternity leave. Dove has pledged $1 million to new fathers across America for the next two years.

“Less than 1 in 5 men in the U.S. are offered any paid paternity leave. Most dads who do have it don’t believe they can take their full time off to care for a newborn. It’s time to change that," Dove wrote on their website ."Working dads shouldn’t have to choose between their children and a paycheck—because when they take paternity leave, it benefits families, workplaces and communities.”

Currently, companies with 50 or more employees are unable to fire workers for taking up to 12 weeks ofparental leave, however they are not required to pay them.

Children are expensive, and money is an object when parents are deciding whether or not they should spend time with their newborn.  Currently,70% of new dads will take 10 days of paternity leave – or less.

Dove Men+Care hopes that the campaign will raise awareness for the importance of paternity leave as well as the impact of paternity leave on children.

"While the role dads play in the lives of their families continues to evolve, 87 percent of dads report being more satisfied with their lives when they can be the caregivers they want to be," Unilever, the company that manufactures Dove Care+Men, stated in a press release.

The campaign is backed by Alex Ohanian, Reddit co-founder and husband to Serena Williams. After becoming a father to daughter Alexis Olympia, Ohanian realized just how important it is for fathers to spend time with their newborns. “No dad should have to sacrifice taking leave, and I’ve been very public about taking mine in an effort to show other men that you can still be an ambitious business person while also taking time for your family,” Ohanian said.

Studies have shown that newborn babies benefit from having their fathers around just as much as they benefit  from having their mothers around. (Not to mention having dad around to help can be a relief to exhausted mom.) It’ll be interesting to see how Dove Men+Care’s initiative will impact a future generation of children and the society they will inherit.  

You can apply for the paternity leave fund on the Dove website.

When Selma Blair first announced her multiple sclerosis diagnosis in October 2018, she said she wanted to bring hope to others who have the disease.

On Oscar Sunday, Blair did just that when the actress walked the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar party looking like a total goddess.

Blair, clad in a stunning gown accessorized with a cape and a cane, got emotional at the significance of the moment. “It took so much to be here,” said Blair, who was greeted by a round of applause. Blair then posed for photos, proving you can still ooze glamor from your pores even after a MS diagnosis.

Blair posted an emotional post on Instagram celebrating the evening and thanking her manager for his support. “There are moments that define us. This is one of those indelibly watermarked in my heart,” wrote Blair.

“So this was a streak of light. To say I am here. I am still in an exacerbation so there was some nervousness. I don’t do anything the way I was once able. I will though. I can regain much.”

Blair’s look that night is destined to become iconic. The actress completely rocked her custom-made cane. “This is love,” Blair wrote on Instagram alongside an image of her cane. “How did I get so lucky?  I wanted a special cane for #vanityfair dinner. So... @lyon_hearted went out and found patent leather and @bic_owen and he stitched it on. Hours of love put in. And then #tombachick made it especially magical. I burst into tears. These gifts to get me through. #subtle #chic #love. I can’t thank these three enough. There are angels.”

Blair’s look was a hit, serving as inspiration to others. She was also lauded for drawing attention to MS, which more than 400,000 Americans live with.

I'm still reeling re: Selma Blair. I had no idea how much I needed to see her with her cane, how validating that could be.

Her photo reminds me why I took this self portrait in the desert, why I shouldn't hide my mobility devices but embrace them as an extension of myself. 💙 pic.twitter.com/7r9nujfzZ2

You're beautiful inside and out!
(I have a neuro-immune disorder similar to MS and it was inspiring to see you out there looking fabulous, with your cane, having your tears wiped away by your support people)💜

I have MS too (just found out in October) and seeing you shine tonight brought me some much-needed encouragement. Thank you for your bravery and continuing to live your dreams! 💜💙💚

— Allyson Bright (@ShineBrightDTS) February 25, 2019

Blair has been open about her challenges following her MS diagnosis. “Going out, being sociable holds a heavy price,” Blair wrote in an Instagram post following her diagnosis.

“My brain is on fire. I am freezing. We feel alone with it even though the loving support has been a godsend and appreciated.”

Kudos to Blair for being honest about her experiences while totally killing it in the elegance department!
