Child in nursery today and tomorrow 8am til 6pm

Who's children are still in nursery today and tomorrow.

My daughter in law is working 8 til 6 pm today and tomorrow in the local nursery for babies from 6 weeks to 4 year old pre schoolers.

They have maybe 10 children in each room still, this close to Christmas.

Most have older siblings and they drop off saying they are not working but want a nice chilled day at home.

I know some parents have to work but most are at home.

These are years that they won't get back with their children , I know that they need to do last minute prep etc but leaving children at nursery until 6pm on Christmas Eve is such a shame for the children and the staff.
Am I being unreasonable?

Mumsnet some hard core women out there. Post a message and dont like replies. So dont post absolute stupid to take it out of someone because they don't agree with you.

I thought you weren't going to post anymore...

You seem a throughly unhappy person. The whole point of a forum is its a discussion board. You post a response and someone will respond back. You may not like the response or agree with it but that's life.

You seem to be taking it awfully personally and quite angry about the fact someone (or a few) have not agreed with what you wrote. If it's going to cause you this much aggro, why keep posting and coming back?

You are a piece of work. I will not be replying to such selfish nonsense a reply to yours was only my opinion, take it or leave it. I dont care. Get over yourself, you want to be right all the time. Must he a burden.

She hasn’t said anything that’s incorrect though? Your life circumstances have nothing to do with the main thrust of the thread.
