Wouldn’t this be the workers asking for an equal number of cookies regardless of if they have children? Sounds to me like saying everyone should get more flexibility.
If everyone has the same flexibility there will be conflucts and someone will have to sacrifice. Whos sacrifice is less affective those with kids or those without
People sometimes have to go without time off anyway, regardless of kids. If I book time off work to go away and its already approved, someone with kids doesn’t get to take that time instead of me.
Plus my partner is a teacher so we are even more restricted to school term times than the kids are. At least some kids just go on holiday during term time anyway.
“Employees without children deserve the exact same treatment and flexibility as those with children” sounds to me very much like its saying the flexibility should be for everyone.
And I think if childless people were saying my grandmother has a fever and her ALF won’t keep her today because of it, they’d be allowed the exact same remote allowances that a parent in their office is afforded. But if a childless person wants the same number of hours regardless of why, that’s not the same flexibility.

Ask for what you need instead of what I have.
Everyone benefits from more flexibility
Not everyone has the same needs.
Yes, but it’s important that the option is there for all. I want benefits for everyone even if I don’t specifically need all of them.

I read it more like immigrants being helped to integrate into the host country. Extra help is sometimes granted where it is necessary
This post is crying about parents getting extra flexibility instead of the actual issue of capitalists exploiting workers to the limit
