[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many type A parents in DC. No one can predict with any certainty. Just roll with it. Why is that so hard?[/quote]

Do you have a job and need to be able to plan your availability and hours in order to keep it?  I don't think its type A to need to remain employed, which partly depends on a structured workday even for people lucky enough to work from home.  For people doing retail and service jobs, not being able to plan ahead is a disaster. I don't think you have any sense of what most people are dealing with here. [/quote]

Easy to "roll with it" if you're a SAHM.  But even if I'm working from home, I still need to be able to plan my workdays in advance -- schedule meetings, be able to focus, etc.  And if I have to go into work, I need childcare, because I can't just take a week of leave every time my kid has to quarantine or whatever.  How easy do you think it is to find a reliable babysitter on very short notice who can watch your kids during the day, all day, for a week?  This is hard for working parents; if you don't need the job or the money, good for you, but most people do.  [/quote]
