Special Foreword Why It's Good to Work at Home

contributed by Jennimarie Dinnocenzo Swegan (age 5)

It's good to work at home because:

  • All the kids get to spend more time with their families.

  • The Moms and Dads don't have to drive as far to get to their offices. (In fact, they don't have to drive at all!)

  • Moms and Dads don't have to have very many meetings and eat lunch at the same time.

  • Dad has enough time to practice basketball with me.

  • I get to meet Mom's work friends on the (videoconference) computer.
