There isn’t one answer that suits all families, someone has to give each time. We have grandmothers, but they’re both older and medically compromised so we don’t ask them to do the sick days, but they do help on school holidays. Luckily both our bosses are pretty understanding, and we share the load. But it’s a constant assessment every time, and we don’t judge each other as parents for it. It isn’t easy.
This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that effect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
Ongoing discussions, FAQs & Resources (still under construction)
