Hi
I'm still fairly new to this lark but this morning my main mindee got dropped off and Daddy said he had another cold - I don't think he's NOT had a cold for the last couple of months. He's also had a cough that seems to have dragged on and on forever, and he's particularly bad with it today. I can manage a cold but I don't think that that's all it is, his breathing is audible and rattly, and he cried for half an hour solidly on arrival, and curled up on the floor, and whenever I or my daughter went to approach him he started a new batch of crying.
Would you send him home? I have texted his mum to say she needs to take him to the doctor, but frankly, I don't really want to be looking after him when he's not well enough to engage with anything. Am I being mean?
Thoughts much appreciated,
Thanks xx
