Should I send my sick child to school?
Should I infect the other children
just so I can get some peace at home?
Should I keep the sick one home
and deal with the fact that they have energy?
Are they still contagious?
I go to work sick
but that’s because I need the money.
Adults do not get the luxury of staying home while sick.
So do I force reality upon my sick child
or indulge them and let them stay home?
All know is I have no energy to fight the tantrum.
Not today.
Maybe tomorrow.
