    Default just told parents I'm closed tomorrow AGAIN due to illness....

    .....they must be sick of it (excuse the pun).
    3 weeks ago my ds was ill with v & d, caught from mindee - 2 days closed. 2 weeks I was bad with flu like symtoms, caught from mindee - 3 days closed. Now ds has awful mucky, red swollen eyes and bad chest and cough. There is no way I would accept a child into my care if they were in his state so I'm closing tomorrow and taking him to drs.

    I know my son is more important than anything but still feel like I'm letting parents down a bit. Why should I feel guilty?

    You feel guilty because you care...BUT your family comes first.
