[quote=Anonymous]My understanding, and I am no lawyer, is that you can't ask about children, but you can ask if someone can meet the responsibilities of the job. So, for example, you can ask "This job is from 10 until 7. Would you be able to work for those hours consistently?" but you can't ask "Do you have children to pick up?" You can say, "We do not allow employees who are teleworking to provide care to others during the hours that they are on the clock. Are you able to provide a distraction free environment during the hours you'll be working?", but you can't say "Do you have kids, what's your plan for childcare?" You need to treat the people without kids the same way as the people with a SAH partner or the person who uses daycare or whatever. [/quote]
