[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH has permission to work from home as long as DS is home. DS is low key and pretty good at doing what we ask him to do so this has not been bad for us. DH does not have phone calls to take or make or conferences to attend so he can help DS when DS needs help. Yes, we are super lucky and I am grateful for that.

That said, I have suggested using a high school or college student this summer and DH hates the idea. He is worried about adding another person to the home.

How will a student work at your house?  COVID will still be around.   I will also not leave kids with any non-family member because all these months of isolation means that people will have mental issues. Finally, what kind of parents will allow their HS kid to come and babysit someone else's children during COVID?

I am waiting for a wave of child abuse to happen because parents will get unvetted outsiders to babysit their children since they will be desperate to get someone in.[/quote]
