[quote=Anonymous]I work in a very pro work life balance, pro family, casual work environment. And it’s great to be a parent and feel supported in that by your employer and to have that flexibility (I have young kids too). But I’ve noticed the only people who ever hold their babies in Zoom meetings are the men. I’m a woman and I feel like the women don’t have the luxury to advertise their child rearing responsibilities even at a progressive company like mine. Sometimes I even find it irritating that these guys likely don’t even realize the privilege they have and how women for decades have had to hide their home life at work, and still do, yet men are seen as great dads and employees by flaunting it. It’s also just distracting to me, man or woman. If it happens once in a blue moon because childcare fell through, fine. But one male coworker has his baby in a team meeting every week. Apparently there’s a nanny at home so not sure why the baby is too.[/quote]
