Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz (WissZeitVG, Fixed-Term Research Contracts Act) and children

Do you have a fixed-term contract based on the Fixed-Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz, WissZeitVG) and do you also have children? WissZeitVG includes regulations to ensure that periods of leave spent caring for children are considered when calculating the length of fixed-term contracts.
A summary is available on the website of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (German).
