[quote=Anonymous]If it is possible for you to invoke intermittent FLMA and use it for your kid's needs while keeping your current job, you can be functionally at 3/4 time work while not derailing your career. (Assuming your workplace isn't run by jerks.) It helps if your DH also has intermittent FMLA and handles daytime appointments, etc, as needed. So, for example: You work from 8 to 3, your DH works from 9 to 6 and handles getting DC to school. You are on FMLA from 3-5 every day, which does not exceed your 12 weeks/480 hours a year. Your DH takes the day off when your kid does. DOL says, "Caring for a family member under the FMLA includes assistance with basic medical, hygienic, nutritional, safety, transportation needs, physical care, or psychological comfort." It doesn't need to be only for doctors appointments.[/quote]
