[quote=Anonymous]OP this is as much about her as it is about your team. She is taking more leave than the policy allows, maybe in clear violation of the policy (6 to me is not an older child. An older child is in middle/high school), may or may not be getting work done. Meanwhile others are working in accordance with the policy on your team, I presume. But whatever her situation is/is not, you need to think about its impact on the rest of the team. What kind of message are you sending? If you do nothing it will be construed as favoritism or a lack of expectations, and that breads resentment and laziness. Can others who are sick, but with no kids, "work from home" even if they get their work done? Or do they need to take a sick day if it isn't a planned telecommute day. She's using it as a substitute for sick leave. With that said, like a PP said, you should not expect her to work if she is taking sick leave. [/quote]
