He will eventually settle down, u just need to be firm to him.. I would think a half day care will be fine since your home got your mum and dad.
Meg is gonna go sch next Jan too, I am not worried about if she will cry or not, coz she will have to learn that going to sch means mummy is not around.. but mummy will pick her up once school finishes.. I dun like the idea of sending kids to cc especially if you have someone at home.. unless really yr mum and dad cannot cope with 2 kids, then it is another story.
Do talk to your mum, she will be able to tell u if she can or cannot cope.. must seek her opinion too coz she will be the main caregivers..
Like my MIL, I asked her when I started preg, if she could cope with 2 kids, if not, I would get a maid, she told me can cope and she doesn’t like a maid at home, tts y I didn’t employ a maid. She also told me at most she cant cook for us, then it’s fine for me, coz we can order food from outside, etc..
But it is really very tiring for her, taking care of 2 active kids at her age is not easy and is really exhausting.. so once I come home, I will take care of them while she relaxes.. weekends, I will be in charge in the kids – from morning till nite, MIL will do her own cookings, go out or do whatever she wants..
Hope this helps..
