[quote=Anonymous]Generally the law is an 8 year old can stay home alone. But we are not talking about a law, she legally can not leave the child alone, but the question is, can she work. I always let my staff work at home with a sick child and I ask that they only log the hours they actually work. My sick 6 year old would sleep until 9, then lay on the couch all day. So I would get a lot of work done. Your problem is that you manage by hours and not by productivity. It is an antiquated way to manage. What do you want done? Does she get that done on time? If she is out all week work will not be done. If she can work most of the day, work will be done. The problem is you don't know how to manage work, you manage hours. You should take a management class on how to manage by deliverables and milestones instead of billable hours. [/quote]
