One doesn't have to read the news deeply to see how much of a firestorm JD Vance's comments about 'childless cat ladies' has caused these last few months. I'm a child free cat guy who stands with childless and childfree cat ladies.
As a childfree-by-choice person, I see inequities in the ways employers treat parents compared to those without kids, whether they be childless or childfree.
I put out a call on the Higher Ed Learning Collective for: 1) institutional policies that allow parents certain privileges that people who are childfree/childless don't receive; and 2) any microaggressions childfree/childless folks have received.
I commented on how tired I was one morning, and a colleague said, 'I was up at five this morning because of my kid! You don't know what tired is!' So I wasn't allowed to be tired, even though the cause was not a crying baby?
