Yup, as a parent of 3, I can totally confirm this. If our kids are legitimately sick, they either read or watch TV. It sucks way more at night if they need to get up every few hours for medicine or something, but I'm not going to be working at that time, so it's irrelevant.
I enjoy what I do for work. I like being with my kids. Sometimes I work while snuggling a sick kid while they watch TV or something. It works. I just let my team know I'll be a little distracted, and they're pleasantly surprised at how responsive I am.
