So is it a really bad thing when the school nurse calls your home and the first thing you tell her (before she has a chance to say anything) is that she can keep whichever kidlet is sick because you just can’t handle anymore?
Luckily, she was calling me because I am an “in case of emergency” person for a neighbor who cannot be reached. And no, I am not taking on another sickie. I was able to give the nurse my neighbor’s new cell phone number and pass the buck or child..however you want to look at it?
