Like it's somehow my fault that they don't have back-up care.
Why is it a double standard? 
That used to frustrate me too.
The last several years I had great understanding families. But before that, if I wasn't available all the time they let me know with all their whining and 'oh no, whatever shall *I* do?' I got to the point where I didn't care, wasn't my problem.
Blackcat, if I die and come back as another ccprovider, I want to be just like you.
