Moral Money: ‘Should I guilt my husband into going part-time at work to home-school?

Oh no. Both of a couple have jobs. They would be so much better off if they were both out of work.

The article fails to mention what they do which I think is very key here. If her company is being a set of tits which it appears they are then she needs to be leaving anyway IMO. Making a person feel like she can't balance work and being a parent to their children with the threat of being passed over for promotions is just not acceptable in this day and age and particularly in the middle of a global pandemic. Disgraceful. I'd be guessing it's a smaller company but who knows. She really doesn't want to be promoted in a company with those values.

FTFY

Today I was doing home schooling, I will work later. My Boss is fine with this.

Having watched this unfold from the comfy position of a reasonably well paid and secure job working from home then people have to be realistic.

Most people I know on Furlough or out the door would suggest paying the bills and keeping a roof over your head and food on the plate is the key not being passed over for promotion. If that is what your manager suggests might happen because you love your kids then revising your CV and getting the hell out of there post Covid is probably your best bet.

No, it's not, but you did not specify that -

Sites really shouldn't use Javascript to do a job that should be done by a backend server.

And it's JavaScript

There's a browser extension for that - GitHub - iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome: Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.

I had a discussion today with a client saying that if I'd been furloughed at any point I would have volunteered to help the school sort out their remote schooling.
Given that today was my daughter's first day of Google classrooms and it has been shockingly thought out.

A Word document, that the child is supposed to edit, but the only content in the document is a .jpg file

They think they've got it bad. I can't even afford to pay to read the rest of the article.

I'm afraid that money and stability of future employment trumps career satisfaction (whichever side that falls on) these days...

Hearing that schools are closing once again has come as a huge blow. My husband and I managed to juggle home-schooling with our full-time jobs during the first lockdown but found it incredibly hard. Both of our managers raised concerns about whether we were able to do our jobs properly at the time. ..."

The one bit that article misses is do you really wish your husband to be the person on the "can leave" list if cost cutting is required in the near future.
