    My kid seems to get the connection between my job and our accommodations, but they’d still rather I play with them.

    They once introduced me to a teacher by saying “this is my dad. He likes working. And money!”

    The (quite young, probably barely in her twenties) teacher considered this for a moment, then said “well… I guess my parents do, too.”

      You should explain to the little ones that your boss wants a certain amount of work every week, and if he doesn’t get it, he’ll get mad and won’t give you any money at all
