I would feel differently if they were contributing to my work like Black Cats husband does though....
That’s a whole different ball game. I hate it if someone assumes because I’m home I’m available.

Agreed on letting parents know. I tell parents if DW or my sub will be subbing for me, have a repair tech coming, or anyone else being here who isn’t part of the household. But frankly if someone enrolls in a home daycare/ family childcare and then is stunned the home has a family, well that’s on them. :rolleyes
