[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Summer is going to be really tough for parents with zero telework flexibility.  For just one example preteens/teenagers.  One cannot so easily just sign them up for 8-6 summer camps for the entire summer anymore.  They have activities that some weeks end at 12-4 pm etc.  We the past few years got really used to having some scheduling flexibility that could be maximized during the summer months.  I am not quite ready to have them be full-on latchkey kids 5 days a week.[/quote]

My kids did camp all summer when I was working before the pandemic in a government position without telework. [/quote]

DP. I'm not sure those exist anymore. I booked extended day camps for my kids last summer every week because I didn't know which days would be in person months ahead of time, and it was really hard to find something. Harder than I would have thought. Almost everything was 8 or 9 until 3 or 4 for full day option.  [/quote]

Yes this is my problem too. “Camp” runs 9-4. Daycare is until 6:30 and my kids are 9! They’re too old to go to daycare camps. Dh and I can switch off who picks up but he’s a fed who travels often. [/quote]

I'm going to trade off with another family for pick-ups on those weeks or just take a few hours of leave each day.  [/quote]
