[quote=Anonymous][quote]How is it a hardship? I am a WOHM and have a backup plan, actually 3 in place if needed. I used them the other days but I did stay home Thurs/Fri and I had a great time with my kids. I can't believe how many horrible parents just hate having their kids at home. If you actually interact with them, you might find out that you like them.[/quote] This is well and good for high income down county parents who can telework without producing much. It is a hardship for many families. Restaurant workers who get hours cut because the snow keeps customers away. Hourly workers who can't afford a back up nanny when school is closed and who don't get paid if they don't show up to work are affected. At many companies the professional staff can telework and do conference calls with kids in the background but the admin staff who make much less are stuck taking PTO or leave without pay.[/quote]
