If I were a parent, I'd probably use 2-3 sick days per year to do this with my kid. Teach them that life is about more than serving the capitalist state and all that

My mom would do this a few times a year with me. I loved those days. I’d help her clean the house and do chores, then we’d do something fun together. I miss her.
