Just wondering what people do when step kids are sick?
Dsd was sent home from school recently for throwing up everywhere (dm thinks another uti but refuses to take her to gp so we will have to at weekend), dsd doesn't like coming when she is sick, she wants to be at home with her mum. Last time her dm demanded she came to us and poor dsd sat in her room here sobbing for hours because she just wanted her mum. We get on great and she comes to me for most things but when ill she wants her mum.
Dp told his ex this and asked her to check with dsd, she refused and said dsd would have to come to us as she 'has nothing in to feed her'
If either dss or dsd is sick here we deal with it and the associated childcare required, but every time their dm demands she can't have them as her bf won't have sick kids in their house.
What do others do?
