It is your job, we will have a meeting at 8:00 am because it is within working hours, someone else can take your child to school.
I was hearing this from a friend, a single parent, who was told this at a remote, purpose-driven company.
It does not surprise me, I have had many leaders who obtained their positions by friendship, luck or good performance in the previous position, but who do not have training and awareness in handling people.
Working remotely is demanding, you have to avoid getting distracted with domestic duties, visits, freedom, flexible schedule, etc.
Getting it right requires developing a new mindset, practices, and habits that will boost both your work quality and your happiness.
Thinking about this:
What's the cost of doing a poor job? What's the cost of doing a mediocre job? What's the cost of doing an exceptional job? Which price are you willing to pay?
