[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AP gets all federal holidays off in our home. If one of us is not working we are spending time with our children. We like them and are weird like that. [/quote]

We have to work all federal holidays because of the nature of my job - I worked 4 hours on Thanksgiving. Stop implying that people who have hours-heavy jobs don't like spending time with our children. We actually do, but have pesky things like student loans, mortgages, etc. that require the use of flexible child care. Check your privilege, please. [/quote]

calm down with your faux outrage.  I'm commenting on OUR situation, we do not work on federal holidays, so we are home with our kids. If we had to work we would be working. You are confused due to your own personal issues.[/quote]

No, you snarkily were boasting about being a better parent and got called out on it so you lashed out.  Maybe check your own personal issues. [/quote]

I'm not the poster, but you seem to be projecting your own insecurities.  I too work some holidays, but if I didn't I'd be home with my kids also. Maybe you have some guilt. I saw the post as benign, you take it as a personal attack on your parenting for some odd reason. Shrug.[/quote]
