Awww, that was really sweet of Mark Zuckerberg to announce his decision of taking paternity leave from Facebook after his wife Priscilla Chan gives birth to their daughter in order to prepare and welcome their first child.
The CEO of Facebook looked really excited for his soon-to-arrive daughter as he posted on his Facebook page that he and his Chinese descent wife are really excited to welcome their daughter and thought about taking out time from the busy schedule during the first months of their newborn, People Magazine reported.
The 31-year-old Internet entrepreneur explained that according to multiple studies when working parents take time to be with their newborns, outcomes are better for the children and families, therefore Facebook offers its employees up to 4 months of paid maternity or paternity leave.
Sadly, Zuckerberg hasn't yet announced his baby's due date.
