Its one day, she easily could have sent the child to you to avoid to inconvience and awful road conditions.
Yup, it seems so g@@d##m stupid to risk your child's safety, especially since the younger brother is in care full time, so parent had to drop them off. They called half hour ago to make sure that i was picking the child up. My response to them was " It was your choice to send child to school today knowing the buses weren't running, so either you can pick them up, call a taxi, or have the child sit at the office until you can make it. No, I am not willing to take daycare children out in this weather regardless as to what you deem as safe, please let me know what you choose." Yes it was bitchy, and short but the sheer sense of entitlement is beyond me
