【Haichuan Workplace Chat】Summer vacation is here – can I bring my child to the office?
Thread Content
It’s dangerous to leave children at home. But bringing children to the office is really annoying. Children are not always obedient and well-behaved; sometimes they suddenly shout loudly, and other times they suddenly start running. Especially since several people brought their children, and the kids got together. It can’t be pressed down at all. Our company doesn’t prohibit bringing children to work, but it’s really annoying too. Work is work; it requires concentration and the need to make phone calls to communicate with others. When the child starts crying suddenly at such times, it’s truly extremely annoying. A few parents in our office who bring their children to work try extremely hard to please their colleagues, fearing that they might be annoyed by them. But the child suddenly became annoyed; it’s really out of control. You can’t do anything about your own children, but you can’t expect others to suffer along with you.

Explain the reasons to the child; on the basis of respecting both the child and oneself, establish the rules that need to be followed, and these rules should also be obeyed by other children. Try it for a few days; if the results are good, continue with it, and if not, stop and consider other options. It is best to establish these rules through consultation with other parents and colleagues, to put them in writing, and to display them in the area where the children play, so that they are aware that those who violate the rules must be removed. After all, the office is the working environment of a company or enterprise; if children truly understand the difficulties of others’ work and the discipline that must be followed in their tasks, they are likely to perform well. Of course, it’s not possible to expect all children to abide by the rules, and those who violate them twice can be removed.
Sometimes parents are also forced to do so; they will understand when that time comes.
Treat children as adults; one should not use the concept of children as an excuse to relax the requirements for them to follow rules.

It’s difficult when the income isn’t high enough. It’s not very practical to take it to work. Our company used to organize summer camps that allowed school-age children to be taken care of there, but that practice stopped after the pandemic; in the future, family relationships might disappear as well. Reproduction through mating is too traditional; it can be achieved through medicine. Centralized breeding, rearing, and training result in low costs and high efficiency. Everyone is an independent individual. Families that inherit large sums of wealth can maintain their family ties. Ordinary civilians just take care of themselves. It is said that the Nazis once used a similar approach to increase the population of the Germanic race
It’s a single-parent family with two children; the oldest is only 2 years old. What should be done? Stay at home and wait to die, or go out to work while carrying two kids – how is that possible?
Discussing individual cases is of little value. A single parent has two children; how did such a tragic situation come about?
I’ll stop talking. Actually, there are many; most rely on elderly people at home to take care of them
Units that meet the conditions can set up an empty office
Older companies used to have factory-run kindergartens. The ten prohibitions for chemical enterprises explicitly state that it is not allowed to bring children or relatives to the work site; it’s best to abide by these rules. If many colleagues have similar problems, it is recommended to talk to the union, the general affairs department, or the manager to see if a designated area in the meeting room can be set aside with someone assigned to take care of it. When I was young, my parents worked at a radio factory, and they took me there with them during holidays. I’ve stuck my fingers into power sockets and jumped into tanks of waste hydrochloric acid, and I’m still lucky to be alive today. . . There are also individual cases in our unit now; one of the sisters-in-law has run away with someone else. One person was taking care of two boys; the youngest was only two years old at that time, while the older one was in elementary school. He locked the child at home while working the night shift, and the kid almost developed autism. There was really no other way, so I arranged for my colleague who lives in the single-person housing to bring the child to the dormitory during his night shift, so that the colleague could take care of him. We managed to get through it all; the younger one is now in elementary school and stays at a daycare center, while the older one will take the college entrance exams next year.
