Need some advice asap..having a rough go of it!

[Wonderwiper]

Oh sweetie.....I hear ya! Worked until the bitter end with my second daughter! You really just have to do what is best for you. Honestly, none of my parents cared what I did with the kids as long as they were safe and fed. I spent half the day lying on the floor resting near the end, ha ha! Whatever you end up doing, do not worry at all about your program/ schedule etc.

Well said ~ exactly!

It is the same as when we are 'under the weather' .... if we offer the parents the option of closing the program entirely so we can rest and feel better OR having a movie and pajama day with the kids while we rest and get better IME it would be pretty much ALL of them who would rather send their kids even if it is just for a 'boob tube laid back day' than to take the time off work themselves because their kid would likely end up spending the day in front of the boob tube at home while they tried to 'work from home' so they might as well be with you and they can work and everyone is 'happy' so to speak cause they are getting paid
