    Default Just picked kids up and apparently "mum has something to tell you"

    Hiya,

    Picked the kids up from school (in the rain ) walking back and my 8 year old mindee says "did my mum say anything to you yet?" I asked him what he meant and he said "just did my mum say anything to you", I said "what tell me something?" and he said yes. I said no and then he said he couldn't tell me. I asked wether it was good news or bad news and he said "in the middle" then wouldn't say anything more - other than his mum will talk to me when she collects. Obviously I wanted to grill him some more but of course that's not appropriate!!!

    ITS NOW DOING MY HEAD IN WHAT IT IS!!!

    They have only been with me about 3 weeks [him and his 4 year old brother] so guessing its probably notice which sucks

    Or maybe I have done something wrong???

    Oh dear its driving me mad and she doesn't pick up till 6.30pm

    Really wish he just hadn't said anything

    Oh no. I'd hate that!!

    Can't you trick him into telling you!!

    Can't think what you might say.. but I'm still thinking!

    Its probably something really boring that you already knew anyway or doesn't affect you at all!

    Maybe she's pregnant and wants you to have her new baby! Maybe they're going on a last minute holiday.

    Lots of possibilities, don't worry about it til it happens.

    Also, it could be something REALLY trivial... 8yo's do tend to over think things!

    Don't worry.

    Try not to worry - the boy said "in the middle" so it might not be notice, it might be something like change of hours one day or something like that.

    Hope you find out soon.
