not fun.my daughter wants to do everything her brother does lol
its like im physically at home but im not lol. work is very demanding as plumbing engineer.
Sometimes i find it unfair and feel bad for them, my work is part of their environment.
So if i get a call or zoom meeting, I announce that im working from home, and you may hear my kids in background.
I have learn to manage my time better, still be productive for the firm.
my wife wished she was able to work from home!

I’m interested in how the parents of school-age kids are managing through this. The romantic vision is an old timey doctor/veterinarian/lawyer working out of the front room of the house (parlor) while the family occupies the rest of it. I don’t think that fits reality, especially if both parents work or there is only one parent.
