[quote=Anonymous]My mom helps me a TON, but without me relying on her for daily care. She covers all the random days off my kid has in public school. Teacher workdays, extra holidays, some of the 2 week break at Christmas etc. She runs Gma Camp in the summer, so I send my kids there for 2-3 weeks. She's local, so we it's not over night, just during the day. Pre-covid she was also my go-to if I had a sick child. You know the illnesses where your kid isn't well enough to go to school but is still well enough to need care. Fevers, waiting out a cold etc. I'm not sure I'd do this now, until the kids are vaccinated, but maybe. Now my DH and I WFH so we are home more. Also, she'll help on weekends here and there too. It still adds up to a TON of time and love and fun with my mom. It saves me money. But if it's ever not working for either of us, we don't have a setup that we are completely relying on to function.[/quote]
