[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW I don't think most people have solid backup sitters. You just get used to a higher degree of stress and you figure it out as it comes.[b] I've also done things like send kids to school a little sick figuring it gets me part of a day before (or if) the nurse sends them home. [/b]Not great, but it doesn't happen much. If I really couldn't miss work I would consider using a service like White House Nannies. It will be an adjustment and feels like a scramble at times, but it does work out![/quote] You're the worst. [/quote] I know a SAHM who admitted to me sending her sick kid to school because dealing with two kids at home is too much work if one is sick. So she sends them and hopes the nurse doesn’t send them back until late. [/quote]
