Yes, for many, working remotely is not sustainable. You definitely need a quiet and private space to work. If you have that at home, great. But many don’t have that luxury.
Personally, my home setup is much better than working in an office, so I plan to work remotely indefinitely if possible. But it is not for everyone and office cultures would do well to ensure in office and home office workers are able to have similar experiences.

Sometimes they bother me, but more than 90% of the time they do well, they realize I work and my wife too. Set the expectations for your family,I think that's really it. And yeah, I'll have my daughter on my lap during meetings, or I'll be standing while rocking the baby occasionally. No problem, colleagues are understanding and I'm actually performing very well, so it should be possible for others to handle this. Obviously a different business is if there is no fully dedicated care (e.g. Both parents work)
