It doesn’t really, but if you have been following these threads its just one of a long line......Why does it make a difference which parent is there to comfort the child if they are sick in the night? I am rubbish with sick (makes me throw up) and no sleep, my husband would definitely be better to sleep with my children if they were sick and my children would be just as happy with them. However we are lucky to have got them to 10 and 13 without any sickness bugs!!
How on earth have you managed that?! I'm so jealous!Why does it make a difference which parent is there to comfort the child if they are sick in the night?

I suppose because they’re up in the loft it’s different but I’m puzzled why Mickey was the one to sleep with Erin and not babs? Next we’ll be told she can’t sleep on the sofa bed due to her bad back and numb leg!Armageddon wouldn’t keep me away from my 8 year old If he was sick not sure I’d sleep in his room as that’s never how we have rolled in this house but I’d be there within seconds
But Mickey doesn't sleep in Bab's bed anyway. This is their usual sleeping arrangements: Babs and Ethan in her bed and Mickey in either Erin or Ethan's room. So I don't get the point of her post, other than to yet again highlight that Mickey does all the parenting in that house and that she prefers to share a bed with her son than her husband.I suppose because they’re up in the loft it’s different but I’m puzzled why Mickey was the one to sleep with Erin and not babs?

When mine were sick my husband used to sleep downstairs on the sofa and not even help as he didn’t want to catch it and end up off work sick!
what a good point I hadn’t thought of it like that that’s prob because I’ve been awake since 4.30 lolBut Mickey doesn't sleep in Bab's bed anyway.

I would say she probably is. My mother is a narcissist. Whenever I was ill as a kid, I always wanted my dad over her.Maybe Erin is a bit of a Dads girl I think its sweet he is comforting his little girl. So many men are absolutely useless in these situations. Vomit ain't exactly pleasant! Shes still only little no harm in being their for your children when they are unwell.
I also thought Brummy was semi normal on her stories this morning....
For me it’s the fact she made a song and dance last night about how she’ll need to put the phone down to look after her girl then this morning says she did nothing all night and it was Stephen once again who did all the work.Why does it make a difference which parent is there to comfort the child if they are sick in the night?

that makes sense I guess dad doing it all is very alien to meI suppose because they’re up in the loft it’s different but I’m puzzled why Mickey was the one to sleep with Erin and not babs? Next we’ll be told she can’t sleep on the sofa bed due to her bad back and numb leg!

I’d be jealous if I thought the rest of her life was worthwhileAll credit to her really, she’s managed to create a situation where he does pretty much everything- I’m amazed.
