Dad just rang to say boy wont be coming. Said he had the 'usual' chest infection. Asked which child gave it to him. I said his child was the first the sneeze so he had to have got it at the weekend! I am so angry as this dad always blames me. I have tried to convince them to give the kid vit c etc. but dad knows best. Doesn't help that the kid is a bad sleeper. Dad decided cot was too small so put kid into a bed. Kid is 2. Ok yes I am so angry. It is not my fault.

Oh dear
Don't understand people that blame other kids for colds etc lol

But at 2 theirs nothing wrong with the "kid" being in a big bed? :)

He doesn't stay in bed and of he is asleep by 9 it is early so is always tired. I think tired children pick up things easily.

He's just prone to chest infections maybe die to low immune system! Can't be helped! Some children get more ill than others! Guess of he isn't a good sleeper they need a good routine at night time,
One of my parents told me her boy was ill cos he's caught a cold off me! So I said well parent being children to me with a cold so why should I cancel cos I'm ill!

Can you imagine how upset parents would get if we started closing for a sniffle.
