My turn to vent....sneaky parents:(

[Crayola kiddies]

I agree I would not let the child back without a drs note and I have a clause in my handbook that says "attention to parents with siblings in care ... If one child is absent due to illness, you must keep the other child at home as well " Someone has to be home with the sick kid anyway.

I'm curious why you demand the other child stay home? My personal feeling on it is that as long as child B is not showing symptoms of being sick I would allow them to come. Then mom or dad that is home at least is concentrating solely on child A that is sick. Or maybe neither mom or dad is home but has grandma or a family friend taking care of sick child. Last minute child care is easier to find for one kiddo than it is for two.
