[quote=Anonymous]Good for her. I wish more women had the kind of support and resources she has, and I wish more workplaces were supportive of things like onsite childcare etc... I delivered my twins at just past 37 weeks. I worked on a telcon that morning and had a scheduled c-section that afternoon. I went radio silent for a few days but was answering critical email and doing a few critical tasks from home within 2 weeks. I'm in senior management, had a boss that was flexible with my maternity leave, have a job that would have significantly suffered if I stayed totally away for weeks on end (and a job I enjoy and didn't want to suffer), and it worked out fine for me. SHe is incredibly lucky, but I would rather focus energy on freeing more women to do more (if they wish) throughout their parenting years than knock down some privileged individual for utilizing the resources at her disposal.[/quote]
