The case for keeping parents in the workforce with flexibility.
It's 12:28 p.m. and I've just finished lunch at my desk when the phone rings. The number of my oldest child's school flashes on my phone's screen and I say a quick prayer before answering, "Hello?" It's the school nurse: My daughter has a slight fever, and can I please come pick her up? My heart aches as I look at my calendar and see that I have a meeting in an hour. "I'll figure something out," I sigh.
