+1 and beyond those specific examples I don't think people have had a chance to fully setup a successful work from home "environment" which might include: dedicated room/office, better connectivity (internet/webcam/headphones), and proper routines/habits.

I imagine most people have moved past the "throw a desk in an unused area of the house and work mainly off a laptop" phase of WFH and in to the "have additional monitors, a quality chair, and access to basic office supplies" phase... there's definitely more phases that need to happen and to use the current/limited/reaction based setups as an example of what full-time WFH is is shortsighted, IMHO.

Also, there's a company/team culture shift that needs to happen too, which to the parent's point, is hard to just magically do while also balancing all these additional "challenges".

How much is your restaurant and eating out budget? Or are you saying that your entire family gets 100% of it's dietary needs from your $500/month grocery budget? If so, that's impressive and you should share you shopping lists somewhere... I know I'd be interested in seeing that :)
