Single mum here, looking for WWYD.
I have my DS4 live with me 24/7, his dad doesn’t see him due to safeguarding issues.
Anyway. For the first time in a year I have plans to go out. Nothing extreme, just hanging out with friends (would be driven by them too) and maybe one or two drinks (not a huge drinker). This would have been my 4th time out on my own in 4 years.
My issue is my son has been slightly unwell this week. Temp, but well in himself. However this morning he woke up, upset, demanded a drink, drank lots and then threw up on my bed and himself!
I know it’s only 7am and he could get better but I’m going to cancel tonight. I feel so unbelievably guilty though that I feel gutted. I don’t get out ever, I don’t see many adults usually (just my mum and best friend maybe once a week) so to hang out with just adults and be myself for a night felt so exciting.
What would you have done in this situation?
(As not to drip feed, my mum was going to watch my son and she was aware that he’s been sick, she was fine with watching him)
YABU - I would have stayed in
YANBU - I would have gone out
