If we're both missing the same time, why is one excuse A OK but the other not? Shouldn't the childless get equal "personal time" to put them on even footing with the free time parents get?*

* And don't say its not "free time" when you're dealing with kid issues. Any time for personal issues outside of work is "free time." You choose how to spend it.
Because it is public policy in this country to encourage reproduction (there is a war going on, you know*). So child-rearing is on an elevated plane. Sucks to be us.


*oh, and a social security crisis.
