I take DayQuil type medication and AirBourne (fizzy tablets to boost your immune system. everyone else in the house should take them if you are sick. They are yummy too! get orange. They are in the drugstone/grocery store by cough drops.)
jenniferlynne said:I'm glad you all started this post, because I am sick now too, thanks to the kids I babysit for and their Mother being too cheap to take them to the Doctor. It was all I could do this morning to drag myself out of bed. These kids have been sick now for over a week. She keeps saying she is going to make them an appointment with the doctor, but then never does. Yesterday one of them had a fever so I just knew they were not going to come today. I couldn't believe it when they showed up. As I type, that same kid is coughing his head off, probably all over my son. Her youngest (just turned 1) is napping and is having a very hard time breathing. His chest rattles when he breaths, but she insists it is just because he is teething. I have totally had it with babysitting. I will watch them the rest of the school year, only because their Mother is a teacher at the school my step-daughters attend, and I don't want her to treat them unfairly. After that, they are gone. I was supposed to go to a show tonight with one of my new recruits, and I am supposed to have my own show tomorrow night. They way I feel right now, I don't want to go to either one!
Sorry for venting!

i used to run a dayhome, and I had it in my contract that if the child is running a fever or is blowing boogers everywhere (Ok, not worded that way in my contract)LOL They could not bring their child to my home as my entire household plus me, the babysitter would get sick, not to mention the other kids in my care. and I let them know, that if im sick, I can't take their kids either. (depending on how sick and whats wrong).
especially if the poor kid has a fever! They need their mom!
