Wow...tough one. I have kids, but I try my damnest to schedule around work. Sometimes that's not always possible. School administrators tend to forget that we don't all get off work at 3:00 when they schedule school related events. For me...once in awhile is no big deal. Life is full of interuptions. However, I do not feel that you should be asked to rearrange your life, permanantly, for the sole purpose of easing the burden off your co-worker. It was (A) his/her choice to have kids, (B) his/her choice to enter the workforce, and (C) his/her choice to seek and accept employment with your employer.
