My Brother was supposed to be watching my kids tomorrow....

[LadyToothache]

And he's gone out with his gf telling my folks that he can't watch them coz he's arranged a shift at his work in Tescos. They told him to phone me and tell me... then he left the house and never phoned me. And he's turned off his phone.

I don't get paid if I don't go to work, Nursery will cost me £55.... and the kids can't exactly just turn up at Nursery tomorrow with no warning.

I'm livid and upset! How could he????? He's only 17, but promised me he would look after them. He did it 2 weeks ago and he's so fab with them and he's such a sensible guy. HOW COULD HE??

I can't afford to not go to work whilst H has disappeared. I'm paying for everything including the car he's disappeared in. He was supposed to give me the money for the car on Friday, but hasn't. What am i going to do now.

I know nobody here can help me, but just needed to vent.

HOW COULD HE?

Thats crap Toothy

Can you go sick?

Really cross for you. I can't believe he hasn't told you. Any chance of your parents helping you out or is that not possible? Not sure what to suggest. Hope you sort it somehow.

Toothy - i wish i could help. That really sucks.

Let him know how much hassle he has caused you.

Tamba - I'm a Contractor.... no work, no pay. Can't afford it. I really banked on the fact that 7 weeks down the line H would be living up to his responsibilities, but he's just....... disappeared.

Hula - parents are both working. They are offering to just take the kids to Nursery and hope for the best. But the Nursery have been SO good to me. H used to watch them every Tuesday so I've been putting them in the odd Tuesday and my Mum/Brother/Me have been taking time off for the rest.

The Manageress at the Nursery has been kind of waving off the extra days...pretending its too much Admin for her to work out the extra cost etc. But this just looks like taking the piss. [sadf]

Thats Crap (whats a contractor?) Any chance kids can go to work with you or you can work from home?

Neighbours?

Tamba - I'm a Consultant..... self-employed.

Definitely can't take them to work, I work in the Technology deptartment of a huge bank! Not kid friendly.

Wee bastard..... I'll kill him. My Mum is going to demand he pays the Nursery out of his wages..... but she won't!
