I am going into hospital for approx 5 days during the school holidays. AIBU to think that my DC of 12 and 14 should help with the housework and so on while DH is at his work during the day instead of spending the time (a long way away) with MILs? Older DC would like to be with the ILs whereas younger DC isn't bothered. We're going to spend a Little bit of time with them the week before.
DH could take time off his work while I'm in hospital, but it would be more useful for him to take the following week off when I'm recovering at home. I'll be having a lot of treatment over the next six months and will probably need an increasing amount of help in that time so we want to save as much of his holidays for then. (Poor DH)
14 is such a tricky age - sigh.
I'd love to know what you think.
