BIG LAW’S WORKING PARENTS ARE HURTING. MONEY IS NOT THE ANSWER.

……….

From SCC: More money certainly is part of the answer; inasmuch as more money brings with it the ability to hire more help, support, and tools to facilitate more peace of mind about when your life includes both having work responsibilities and caring for dependent humans in your life (whether children, aging parents, a sick family member, etc…). Money certainly isn’t enough, though. We need the workplace to acknowledge, in a substantive way, that it is made up of HUMANS and therefore cannot be expected to run with the same efficiency as though it were comprised of mere computers. It’s absurd to expect apples to simultaneously be oranges.
