Following on from the Sralan's childcare questions thread, why do we feel the need to brush our children under the carpet? Why are we afraid of being questioned about our childcare arrangements, answering honestly and facing the consequences? Don't you think it's time that we stopped being so apologetic? Any good employer knows that a good employee will not let his/her home life interfere unnecessarily with his/her work. But similarly, any good employer accepts that there are times when family life has to come first and trusts their employees not to take advantage. That is my experience in any case.
