I attach an image to show how much the infant's needs dropped. I left them maxed in all except fun which was halfway and he was playing when his dad went to work at the police station. His mother's needs dropped some too but her fun was the most affected. As his dad was at work, the infant's thumbnail image turned blue when it was green when his dad started work. Unfortunately I'd selected an extended work day as his dad needed to solve a case for promotion. When his dad got home from work, the infant was in a bad way so it was a race to help him. He's also affected by the bug where he's streets away on returning to the lot, I'll report that separately on the appropriate thread. I've aged him up to toddler to test if that makes a difference next.
Edit: I aged up the infant to toddler and sent his dad to work again after the toddler's needs were maxed out. They still decayed while his dad was at work and I've shown that in the second image. It's not quite as severe as during infancy but still significant.
