Unexpectedly 😂
My children are going back to school soon and I was previously on the shielding list. My mum isn’t happy about them going back and bringing covid home to me. I’m currently considering leaving dh and I said basically that if I did catch covid and didn’t recover then that’s not really any ‘worse’ than breaking up the family anyway. It’s basically the same thing. In fact it would be easier in loads of ways because the dc would get used to it and not have to constantly be split between two houses and they’d move on much more quickly.
My mother doesn’t agree. She says I am the lynchpin for my children and they’d be distraught. It ended with her saying she might as well go and jump of a bridge then as it’s faster and she wishes she’d never had me as basically life is pointless anyway. I agree with her, it is.
However the whole argument is ridiculous as I haven’t got covid and even if I did I probably wouldn’t die anyway. I just feel it would be quite handy if I did - the only people it wouldn’t be so good for would be my parents as they wouldn’t be able to see my dc much anymore as dh wouldnt facilitate it.
So basically I’ve fallen out with my mother over the hypothetical course of events should I hypothetically catch covid and die.
