[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't conflate your three weeks of "on and off" travel with the one week she's asking for - what are you actually looking at? Two days of childcare coverage needed during that week? Three? Take it from the actual problem and fix that. Can someone someone from your side of the family come stay with you to cover those days during the week DH goes to his sister's? Can you pull the kids from school and send them with DH for those days? If your SIL has used up all of her sick leave during this emergency while her unemployed brother helps pay some bills remotely, this ask is actually very reasonable. You should be trying to find a way to make it happen, not looking for offense that you didn't get enough notice.[/quote] I'm not looking for offense, I'm trying to figure out how to do what she's asking without blowing up my job while my spouse is out of work![/quote]
