Tracy72 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 on bf....a child sick...would you just leave with hubby to take care for a few hrs...or would you just cut your losses and take care of the child.....probably depends on the condition of the child...fever and things like that..if just a little cold then hubby can care for them for a few hrs.lol
elena_398 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Only if it wasn't serious. If its just a cold, Dad can take care of it! My family comes first though and if it was serious, I can always pay full price (only if I absolutely have too! LOL).
outnumbered Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Well, I think that Daddy can take care of a puking kid just as well as I can LOL...when he is home anyway. Dh is deployed this year so that is likely going to be my reason to stay home: nobody to be here with the kids while I'm gone.
starshine Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Dad can take care of him if he is sick. Now in the hospital that would be a different thing. The only other thing that would stop my BF shopping is heavy snow or black ice
RossMAN Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 If I were sick or terrible weather (raining cats and dogs).
Steakgoddess Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Dh is excellent with the kids. He can handle them being sick. So I would have to be seriously ill or it would have to be snowing blizzard style.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Snow, and 40 below would keep me home.. If my son was sick, depends...if he has the mommy complex, no way I could go...but if hes sleeping...be back in a couple hun!
Booterbunz Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 The only thing that'll keep me home this year is if dd is sick or if I don't like what's on sale! Yikes!! LOL
diane175 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 If my children were really bad then I would definitely stay home, but dh can take care of minor ills. The only thing that would keep me home is if my dh is sick too! lol Then I would have to rethink my plans!
Guest DigDoug Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 If I was sick or Angelina Jolie was coming over.
Ravenseye Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Dude...if Angelina Jolie were coming over...I'd take her shoppin too! j/k! But anyway... If I were to see the deals were just as available online as they were in b&m stores, I'd stay home. Think of the stress free shopping you could get done! -Mike
bayhaysay Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Two things that could make me stay home: sick kid, or knowing my luck my vehicle would break down, heat/air unit would go out, or whatever and there goes the $$$ I've saved! I'd definitly be staying home if I were broke.
jrsgirl8 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Pretty much only if me or my kids were hospital like sick. Think that's probably about it. Me and my best friend were both 8 1/2 months pregnant last year and we didn't see much in the ads, but we still were there at 5am!!!
Gumball Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 Me or my daughter sick or really bad weather would keep me home absolutely. I'd just shop online then.
Gator Pam Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 If I was sick, if my car didn't start, if there is absolutely nothing I want in the ads, or... ::sigh::: If yet another hurricane hits Florida near FIL's (three interesected in his town last year)...
brynnfromtheblock Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 NOTHING!! JK, if the kids were in the hospital maybe.... I'd go with IV's in my arm!!
geomacey Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 welll, I think I've only missed one in MANY years .... and that one was because DS showed up at 6:13AM and after 29.5 hours of labor, I just wasn't up to shopping! I think now probably only a deathbed illness or a state of emergency would stop me!
elena_398 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I doubt I would miss regardless. Husband is home incase of an illness. Of course weather conditions would be about the only factor
oldandintheway Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 We don't have kids, so this is definitely not a parent's standpoint. Basically the only thing that could keep me from shopping on BF is I'm on my deathbed or a death (or serious accident) in my family. Last year, when I went out shopping on BF, I was feeling ill, and I still bundled up and went. I found out later that day that I had food poisoning.
