WWYD-Flu and babysitting...

my SIL e-mailed me this morning asking if I can babysit Wed and Thurs (14m old)  Apparently this last week they have been home sick with the flu, on some medication and whatever.  She said he is being cleared to go back to daycare on friday but she needs a sitter for wed and thurs.  I don't know if I'm comfortable with it, I hate to tell her no though.  WWYD?

  • Nope. Don't you have school aged children? I would hate to bring home an illness and have to have my children miss school because if it. I would just let her know you're unable to do it.

  • Negative. I would tell her that I am uncomfortable with it.

  • No way.  I would nicely express your concerns about YOUR health to her. There's no way I'd be around them right now, though.  Just not worth the risk, especially if you have kids.
  • thank you, I was going to tell her no, but just wanted to know that I wasn't the only one.  KWIM?  Anyhow thanks!
