My other D who has no kids yet has said that soon we will go away for a week & leave her to it. My other D also gets put on to help with the kids & she is a hard working teenage cancer nurse & also gets fed up of having her free time taken up with the kids. We do take them out when she is off but U cannot on my own because sil is using my car for work. Won't moan any more honest!!
Do you mean you are looking after the children and your car is being used by their father so you can't take them anywhere?
That really is taking the p... I would firstly say no to the car going away then at least you can go out somewhere as it breaks the day up - soft play, parks, woods, beach. Tires them out and is good fun. It's not fair on your other DD either as she has a really tough often emotional job and I take my hat off to her. She needs some time off to herself. Could a family chat be a way to start - eg, it's getting too much at our age, could we reduce the hours, have you considered any free childcare from government, really need the car to take them out as weather improves (if it ever does!) etc?
