I work 5 nights a week some of my older children are older teenagers , my husband works away mon-fri I get home in time to see my kids head off to school I sleep for 4 hours so when they come home from school I’m here for them , we often miss first day back to school but the difference is our kids are with us every day we don’t farm them out . It’s no big deal about going back to school unless parents make a big deal out of it . Small children are none the wiser , half of the dramatics of these people would do . I would love to have a day time job but childcare would cripple us , she is so lucky to have the support she has . No young child needs to see their mother bawling cos they went to school . Silly unnecessary carry on for a few likes .
