I've taken days off when I had no PTO, yeah it made life tough on short paychecks, but it was all about what we considered important. Probably the reason I got divorced...
I'm not saying it can't be done, but your last paragraph sums up a lot of why it would be undesirable Sometimes a sick kid in daycare is better than the alternatives.
