Because I can't! Even though it's my leave entitlement. Even though I try me best not to ask at difficult times and fit in with other people, sometimes there isn't any choice. Like this term - I'm already working half days from home because of DS#2 starting reception afternoons only (for 11 weeks!! But that was another thread). And now I've got to cover 4 inset days (one of which is DS#1's open day at his (hopefully) new school. So all in all I feel very uncomfortable about it atm.
I always feel like I should go to into my boss' office wagging my tail like a dog in hope of a walk . I hate it! I want to be assertive and demand my rights but I never feel I can. Any tips.

Does anyone manage to ask for leave without feeling as if you're asking for a really big favour? If so please share your secret!
