What to do??

[Mummybear26]

Hey everyone, I know there’s mixed views on this at the moment and not here to cause a ruckus just looking for general opinions....
Christmas bubbles have been chosen and my grandparents have chosen to be with me and my dc. They both are extremely vulnerable and been fighting cancer 😞 now would you stop your child going to school on Friday until January? I want to keep them safe and want 10 days isolation to make sure it’s definitely safe for them.myself and my youngest ds are also vulnerable... What would you do?
You can’t put a price on health of those you love so I’m not bothered about getting a fine just genuinely looking for other parent opinions on what they would do? Or are going to do?
Thanks in advance everyone! 🌲 😷

Well! That makes the decision easier. Hopefully your DC are not close contacts. I would keep them home (not socialising with classmates etc) in any case.

Sounds like the case might be a staff member?

@August20 as far as I’m aware we haven’t been told any other information so currently a guessing game! Genuinely hoping my ds is not a close contact as me and baby are highly vulnerable 😞 aniexty is through the roof right now.. yes by far made it a lot easier on what I would do come Monday morning but I am worried as that’s not exactly a lot of information to go off of! @Howmanysleepsnow 5 times? Wow! This is our first since September so I don’t know how it all works.

@Mummybear26

The way they said "role of the confirmed case" and that so many staff are off as associated contacts makes me think it was a staff member who had contact with colleagues but that is pure speculation.

Sorry to hear that you and baby are vulnerable. Hopefully you will get more information soon. Statistics are on your side for being all right. Take care of yourselves.

@August20 Thank you! Only time will tell... with any luck he hasn’t been BUT if he has atleast I know we shouldn’t be poorly over Christmas! Hope you and your family have a lovely Christmas take care x
