[quote=Anonymous]I have 12 per year, plus a job where telecommuting isn't discouraged when a kid is sick. I found early on that I could typically get in about 4 hours of work with a sick kid at home, so I only had to take 1/2 a sick day and could keep the rest for later. In the first year of my daughter's life, I used every single one of my sick days. Her dad had no telework option at the time, and less generous sick time, so he would only take days with her when I was starting to run out, or when I absolutely needed to go in, or when I'd been home with her for several days and was getting squirrelly. Whoever has sick days available and doesn't have anything pressing that day should take the sick days.[/quote]
