I am lurking on MN as I keep my child company as he is sick with a fluey cold and in a bed on the sofa. Boyfriend is currently staying with us for a few days and does not have his car here. He is all grumpy and has taken himself off to my bedroom because he is 'bored'. I have suggested a walk, a board game etc. I even offered to let him mow my lawn :) . Am I right to feel a bit annoyed that he does not get that when you have a sick child you can't do much? He is expressing frustration about 'another wasted day' etc. I would suggest he goes home but he needs me to drive him and it's an hour and a half away. Any advice?
