Depends on where you live and how old your children are. Plenty of great outside options in many parts of the country.
Evicted (if you haven’t read it already)

Walking children to school is a real gift.
as Ann Pachet of @parnassusbooks.bsky.social wrote this is “a manual for decency and kindness.” Very much needed. Father Strobel is missed.

Our business school has a nice faculty lounge.
Hoping to attend a lot more in person readings like this one by David Dark at Landmark Booksellers.

I refuse to see the movie. Have my own film in my head from the book.
Now think about those who work in childcare and have children…
Law professor teaching in a business school, if that counts.
I haven’t. I imagine they are all $$. I just get spammed by a few of them. CoCounsel is the one with the most ads.
