I have a problem. I hate when people send their kids to my house when they’re sick, but no one else cares. Literally no one and I come off the crazy one.
My friends know that I worry about germs. They know my kid gets sick easily. Last week, one mom sent her kid here sick and then AFTER she left texted me a passive aggressive apology because she “just realized” I was probably “flipping out” because her kid had a runny nose. It really made me mad - the condescending text even more than the sick kid.
I vented to my other friend who was really understanding, but then just sent her kid here coughing up a storm.
I know kids get sick. I know I’m the odd person out here. But I’m SO EXHAUSTED. I have a lot of important things come up and I just don’t want us to be sick. My daughter just had Covid and it was really stressful and exhausting keeping my husband and I from catching it.
How do you all stop caring about this? How do you stop being so exhausted by trying to keep people healthy? I’m just so tired.
