This is a real phenomenon. When my son was first born I blew through about five jobs in five years because I had to leave at 4:45pm - 5:15pm to pick him up from daycare or school. Before that I tended to remain in the same position for 5-6 years. Then I got into a position where most of my peers and superiors had kids, "got it" and I've been in that position for close to five years now. Especially annoying when your peers are coming in drunk or stoned, passed out at their desks half the time, and you are the one getting grief because you have a parent/teacher conference to attend. If my peers wanted to WFH because they were hung over, mo problem. If I needed to WFH because I was feeling ill, no problem. If I needed to WFH to watch my child I would have to do video calls with my boss every two hours to show what I had done. Eventually I wised up and just said I was sick instead of mentioning my son.
