[quote=Anonymous]It's all a snowball effect- families live far away from each other or don't/can't help, we need two incomes to get by, work hours and expectations are difficult especially if you don't have support, kids have tons of homework so it's difficult for them (and their parents) to catch up if they are out of school-- the result is that many parents wouldn't send an obviously sick child to school, but might play the stats if their kid is borderline. I remember years ago, some of the non-exempt female employees in my office seemed like they were back at work *really fast* after having babies. I found out that between their leave and anything they could expect from work, they could take a max of 4-6 weeks off. That's really not enough if you're trying to establish nursing and schedules + keep yourself and your family healthy. [/quote]
