If you (who I assume are kidless) need to leave work early to handle a personal commitment I have no issue with that.

I don't understand why kidless people have an issue with parents leaving early to manage childcare obligations that are directly caused by the pandemic (the reduced school and childcare hours).

I get the "I might be working more hours" argument -- the solution isn't to penalize the parents instead it should be to level the field.
