Supreme Court Overturns Three-Month Limit on Maternity Leave for Adoptive Parents
The Supreme Court has ruled that imposing a three-month age limit for maternity benefits is unconstitutional. The decision ensures that women who adopt children older than three months are entitled to the same maternity leave and benefits as biological mothers. This ruling reinforces the principle that an adopted child should be treated the same as a biological child in terms of parental rights and entitlements.
