Not exact matches

Essentially, the new law would require businesses with more than five employees to reasonably accommodate caregivers that need time away from work to «care for or support» a «family member» (defined to include a child, parent, spouse, domestic partner, parent - in - law, sibling, grandparent or grandchild).

Because previous research (Gilligan et al., in press; Suitor et al., 2009) has shown that the perception of any favoritism, rather than the particular pattern (e.g., mother preferred the respondent or another child), predicted sibling tension, we used the children's responses to create a dichotomous variable: 0 = child does not perceive mother as preferring any particular offspring as her future caregiver and 1 = child perceives that mother prefers either him / herself or another child as her caregiver.
