[quote=Anonymous]I was forced to do this during COVID (with a virtual learning 1st grader and a preschooler whose school closed). We did eventually hire some part time in-home help once we realized the world wasn’t going to reopen anytime soon. But it was so freaking stressful and I didn’t feel like a good employee or mom. I get that childcare can be ungodly expensive, but most people factor that in when they decide whether/where/how many hours to work. Anyone voluntarily subjecting themselves to WAH with young kids and no childcare is an idiot and their kids are probably neglected eating snacks in front of their iPad all day. It’s one thing do do that for an occasional sick day, emergency meeting you need to call into, etc. but shouldn’t be the long term plan.[/quote]
