[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a nanny share and both families told me last night they will be telecommuting and no need to come in. I guess some parents are completely capable of watching their own children while working from home on occasion. I still get paid and no vacation time docked either, bonus off day!

I have pretty nice employers. [/quote]

This is illegal if they are Feds and ruins telework for those of us who actually work while teleworking. Just FYI. It's not good parenting to be "teleworking" while watching your kids - it's being a bad employee. [/quote]

If they can both telework, it's possible they're splitting up the day -- mom watches kids in morning while dad works, then dad watches kids in afternoon while mom works. [/quote]

Sure that's all fine. I'm just making sure it's clear that good employees cannot telework while watching kids - the nanny that originally posted this was implying that if you're not able to watch your kids while teleworking, you're a bad parent. I had to either telework or take leave today. My nanny called out, so I have to take leave. No harm - she has PTO for this reason too, but if I was "teleworking" today while watching the kids, I would be disciplined if someone found out. [/quote]
