I dont begrudge anyone having a break or letting grandparents have some decent time with the kids. Its the distance and the current crisis that really gets me. I couldnt physically be so far away from my kids. My eldest has been on a sports club today, 20 minutes away, i was panicking what if he broke his ankle and i needed to get to the nearest hospital, how long would that take me. I know its unlikely, but you never know with kids and I would hate to be in a situation where mine needed me and I couldn't get there for 10 hours at least?!
We know how quickly covid can change, and would you really put your children at risk on a flight and in the airport when it isnt necessary? An announcement could be made tomorrow that Sarah's town is in lockdown and then she is screwed. I don't comprehend why she wouldn't just stay in Scotland, shut herself away 9-5 and crack on with her day job whilst her parents have the kids.
