Sorry if this is a really basic question, but I've never dealt with it before. How do you cover school holidays if both parents work? DS will start school in a year. DH works full time, I work part time but as a freelancer so in theory could just not work during school hols (or cut back hours) but I was considering going permie. If I did though, I couldn't just take 12 weeks+ holiday a year - so how do people cope?
I grew up in America where you get sent to camp for at least part of the summer holidays. The rest of the time, my parents were both freelance so I think they just fit work around us, or sent us to my grandparents lived down the road. They also left us to fend for ourselves at a rediculously young age (and aside from a few black holes in my knowledge of child rearing, we all turned out okay!)
