Hello! I am a lone parent of a nearly 8 year old, that's stuck in a bit of a situation.. my son behaviour at school isn't amazing and is always worse on a Monday after being at my parents for the weekend, because I have to go to work at weekends, I cannot currently work during the week as my son isn't doing full days at school due to behaviour and exclusions. His "father" has never been there. I have been off of work this weekend due to getting the dreaded sickness bug off of my son. He has gone in to school today and his behaviour has been amazing! this is usually the pattern. I work my 16 hours and quite happy to go to work, but I just feel that me going to work at the weekend right now, while we are stuck in this situation doesn't help him in school, I don't know where I can turn and as he is over 5 I'm just expected to go on job seekers allowance, but I cannot work during the week. I have been working weekends for the last year and a half. No one seems to want to offer any information. anyone have any ideas of what I can do about this? :) thanks
