[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is a common set-up: two parents out of the house 10 hours a day, scrambling to provide care for their own children. We make it work because we have to.[/quote] And what benefit is there to society in making more people have to deal with this?[/quote] So your question (why should I have to suffer like you, essentially) comes across as a bit… privileged to those of us who do essential in-person jobs. [/quote] Nice try. Answer the question. What benefit is there to society in making other people’s lives worse?[/quote] You mean: What if we are all as self-serving as you? Who is going to teach your children? Who is going to provide after-school activities and childcare for you? Who is going to be at the urgent care when you or your child get sick? See, it’s really tiresome for those of us who work for the betterment of society (which often has to be done in person) to hear the woe-is-me from somebody who may have to experience a bit of what we do. It’s hard to feel sympathy when your argument is “well, you’re suffering, but thankfully I don’t have to!”[/quote]
