I think I’m going to get blasted for this but my lovely parents are being frustrating imo. Me and DH moved from London to the south coast to be near them. We have 2 girls, 2 and 4. Both in nursery 4 days a week as we both work FT. My parents do a day for us, have done for a year. They offered and I’d never expect more. I am grateful. My dad has now said it’s too tiring for them to do all day so will do half. So we have no cover and can’t really afford more nursery. We get by but I felt that as there are two of them, almost 70 but very fit, play golf most weeks and are very active that it’s disappointing they won’t do the whole day once a week plus DD1 goes to school in sept.

Hello, we are getting a lot of reports about this thread so we just wanted to step in and ask posters to please refrain from the personal attacks as they go against our Talk guidelines.
Perhaps we could have a little more peace and love - Mumsnet primary aim is to make parents' lives easier after all, not more difficult.
