Have had to take my youngest to a&e, which means I've had to take my eldest (9 years old) along too because there is no one to watch him
It's now 2am and we've been here for 5 hours and we are on the edge of a massive meltdown happening and there's literally nothing at all I can do, no one I can call to come and get him or to help so I just have to let it happen basically.
I don't know why I'm even going to do if he kicks off on the middle of the a&e childrens waiting room.
No real point to this post but I am just really stuck and sick of being in situations where I am stuck, just venting really
AIBU?
To think being a single parent makes some things almost impossible?

Am I being unreasonable?

This thread is MN at its finest, isn’t it?
Your child isn’t ill.
Are you a scammer?
Get a village.
I am not a single parent, luckily.
I sort of have a village. I don’t have my own parents any more, so I have tried really hard to build a village of friends.
I still don’t have anyone I could call in the middle of the night to sit with my SEN child, funny that, what a rubbish village. Or just one made of ordinary people.

OP I haven't been in a taxi in the last 6 or 7 years that hasn't taken card! Ask before you get in or when you phone for one but I'd be shocked if they didn't.
