What is the name of your state? Indiana
I have a friend who is going through a divorce. Just after they separated her husband said he made an apointment with a psychologist or a counselor of some sort. She knows of only one other time he's seen this person yet that's not the issue. She does know that he was taking a day off of work here or there. His excuse was he was just having a bad day. Last night he told her that he wasn't going to work today and that his work had granted him a FMLA and could basically take off when he felt he needed. I thought that FMLA's were only for medical reasons (be it yourself or a family member). Does this mean that the psychologist would have had to give him a medical reason to be able to qualify or am I way off on the FMLA?
