I'm not the person you were replying to, but I don't have kids at home, so I'm able to work from home without too much distraction.  There are times when I like working from home, and at my current job, there are days when I don't interact with anyone face-to-face anyway, so the commute sometimes doesn't seem worth it.  I generally do like interacting with people at work, and in the past, I generally have had at least a couple people I always enjoyed interacting with including non-work related things.  At my current job though, although I tend to have good interactions with people, there hasn't been anyone at work I interact with in depth aside from work-related things (at least, there hasn't been a whole lot of interaction about non-work things).

I got divorced about 4 years ago, and at the time, I really enjoyed going to an office to work and interacting with the people there, and I definitely would have felt really lonely working from home.  These days, I'd probably like working from home more often.
