I ask that my parents notify me of any illnesses within their home that occur, whether it is the attending child, sibling and/or parent. Just be respectful enough to let me know.
I feel most are really good about it. Some tell me after the fact but whatever.
As for the child you sent home on Tuesday....he would not have been allowed to return until Thursday at the absolute earliest. I actually follow the 24/48 hour rule and would have excluded him until Friday but it is what it is and returning Wednesday would have resulted in being turned away at the door.
I am sorry you got sick too... I think it takes a while to build a strong immune system but eventually most providers do. Hope you are feeling better soon!
