Self isolation with the SD

Mommarobbins's picture

Like many others, we are forced to self isolate and the schools are closed for the remainder of the year. We have SD9 this week and I'm so over it already (luckily my DH is home so I'm not stuck with her 24/7) but next week, BM wants SD to be at our house again so she can go to work and for all foreseeable weeks until BM takes a lay off or something?! She thinks because I'm at home on mat leave I should just take her daughter all day. Um that sounds like an absolute nightmare to me. How do I tell DH that's not ever going to happen and the extra daytime time with SD is already making me depressed and unhappy.

Bm doesn't get to dictate what happens in your house. Next week is not your husband's week for his daughter so it's up to bm to find a solution for her week. This is not yoiur problem nor your husband's problem.

Who do these parents think they are? Do they think people just want to sit around all day and watch their kids? Those are not your kids.
