Hi all. I'm sitting at home with my 2 year old DS who is a little unwell (conjunctivitis) and the nursery won't take him.
How do you manage as a lone parent when your child is sick?
I used to have a career. My new employer has already extended my probation as I'm not performing well, although I work very hard. With my DS catching every bug going I'm worried that I may be 'let go'.
The only person I can ask to have him is my dad but he's 70 and can't really cope with a toddler all day.
My mum is terminally ill and obviously can't take him either. I'm at a loss - how do 2 parents manage, let alone lone parents?
