Soror Conskeeted: When co-workers willingly take on other workers' responsibilities, that's fine
. I think most of us are referring to managers and parent co-workers who ASSUME or DEMAND that nonparents pick up the slack of parents. That, to me, is unconscionable, just as it would to be not allow parents to use their time off (be it vacation, sick time, personal time, etc.) to attend to their children's needs. No one is beating working parents up; we're just saying it ain't our responsibility to make sure parent workers can BE good parents to their kids, especially if we're not given time to take care of personal life stuff with our earned time off too.
