My daughter is only 16 months, but I love it. Every time I open the door to leave my office, no matter where she is or what she is doing, she yells “dada!”. It’s tough at times, but how often in my lifetime will I get to see her this much during work weeks?

100% this for me too, I'm really enjoying it. My daughter is turning 2 next month, my son is 2 weeks old. I'll likely never have this opportunity again. I set up in the corner of the living room so I can have regular interactions with my wife and kids.

My wife is also a SAHM, so not near as hard of a transition as those with two parents working full time from home.

The wfh and being able to giving the attention to my 10 month old daughter is a balancing act each and every day, but I think it’s really cool to be able to spend this time with her. I am a working mom that would be sending her to daycare if it was safe and this is time I would never get otherwise

It’s a combination of exhausting and wonderful. I’m not going to have as much childcare as I had before and I’m in desperate need of some help soon.

Love her so much! Only feel sad I can't give her the attention this cute smushy 2 yr old deserves (or my work deserves LOL)

It's great!

It’s been great. Have 12, 9 and 6 year old boys. Family dinners every night. We both work so this is more time than ever that we have been able to spend with them. While it’s a terrible thing that’s going on, there has been some good things that have come from it.

Hey all, US born Tam Brahm here. Hope this isn’t too sensitive a topic to ask about, but for all those with deeper Indian roots than I do (born in or living in India), can you please explain why some people posit that even having this chat perpetuates the negative parts of a caste system? My perhaps naive perspective is that Brahmins are a caste but also a religious subsect. One can be religious and seek similar devotees without believing in or perpetuating caste hierarchy. Reductive or fair?
