I have no problem with some accommodation such as being late because your child's bus is late, music lessons, etc. The problem is that a lot of parents are starting to abuse this.

Weather is crappy outside, sorry can't come in to work as child is sick.

No school on Friday, have to stay home and watch kids. And if I have to watch them, it may as well be at the lake for a long weekend.

And it's not just at my work. More and more of my friends are doing this and think that it's fine. Which is why I'm starting to lose a lot of sympathy for the parents.
