Northfield Parents Talk: Snow Days and Sick Days

Juggling children and work can be a struggle sometimes.

When school is canceled because of a snowstorm or your child comes down with the flu, what do you do about your own work responsibilities?

On one hand, your children are the most important responsibility you have. And on the other, your job is the thing that pays the bills, providing for your children.

This blog entitled “Weather, sick days leave working parents snowed under” provides tips for what you can do to ensure your kids are well taken care of and that your career is taken care of as well.

And even if you have planned in advance for days like this, sometimes–as I know from experience–it can still be a scramble.

Please share advice on what works for you and your family in the comments section below.
