I have 2 children in year 7 at secondary school dd12 and dsd11. I am currently on maternity leave so I have been taking them to school and picking them up since they started in September. I have also been taking two of their friends who live on the same estate as us.
Yesterday and today my two have been off school poorly with the flu type bug and sickness. Yesterday as it was short notice I still took the two friends.
Yesterday evening DD messaged her friends saying they would both be off school again today.
At 8:25 today one of the friends mums messaged me through Facebook asking where I was. I said I wasn't taking them today as my two were off I'll and dd had informed her dd last night. She sent a snotty message saying that her dd would be late now.
I'm now quite annoyed but also feel bad. The school is a 2.5 mile walk away. There is a bus too the school that children can pay for. And friend also has a bike so could have cycled. Added to that friends Mum drives but says she doesn't like getting her baby up to take them. I have a baby too so see that as irrelevant.
Should I have still taken them?
