cries in working parent

My employer gives us 8 sick days a year. When we run out of those we are supposed to use vacation time. It's downright depressing how fast we blow through the sick time in a bad winter season.

I'm very very lucky to work from home, so I can neglect my sick kid at home while getting work done and thus avoid having to burn through my vacation time as well. Others aren't so lucky.

This is pretty much illegal in most European countries btw. But not all countries assure sick children time off.
