Central government employees get 15 days of paternity leave, and private sector rules vary widely. But official rules often forget those of us who become parents through adoption. We got only the same 15 days when our beti came home, which felt far too short to build a new rhythm. That hum of the fan was the only constant while we scrambled those first weeks, ledger pages forgotten. Bas, thik hai—the law sees a parent, but doesn't always hear the quiet panic of a new father, adoptive or not.
