else's individual experience, he should take it upon himself to collect as
much information on the matter as possible before jumping to a conclusion.

be, so he should make an informed decision.- A possible activity for this
strategy could be creating a graphic organizer with a table depicting the pros
and the cons of both scenarios. From there, he can visually see which option
brings more pros than cons and vice-versa.- Further, he should consult his
priorities. In the grand scheme of things, he has the liberty to choose the life
he wants to pursue. It is solely up to him to decide whether he wants the
promotion or to take paternity leave on the behalf of his spouse. He needs to
take the initiative to talk to both his employer and spouse regarding the
situation to solidify his decision.
