[new] Results may vary (none / 0) (#2)

I suspect that results vary by institution, and even by department (or who is currently chair). I've found my college, and particularly my department, to be very family friendly. We all have children, and the three women who went up for tenure in the past two years all had the children within a few years of being hired. And we've all been awarded tenure. But it does seem to make a difference that we work around each other's schedules, babysit each other's children on weekends when someone has to come in for an open house, and are all (or have been, or plan to) be in the same boat.
