Doing too much ?

Having animals is limiting when holidays are involved, we have the same problem and can only be away if a member of the family will call and do animals.

It is not as simple as paying someone else, sadly people take your money and let you down, so leaving a family member is charge is often the best option.

OP, perhaps your daughter is having a bad day, to me it does not seem a bad deal for her, some time to herself in return for doing your horses.

Why is forest girl attracting such unpleasant replies for goodness sake?

I don't understand what help you feel anyone can offer you.

Only one hour per day for horses (in the plural)?

I'm presuming these horses must live out then, all year out and not need extra feed, grooming, New Zealands, checking over???

And does this include driving to and from their field?

Or me!

Not sure what sort of help you want, though...

Oh, don't mind me.

Silly me, I thought that was the idea of these forums to ask for help.[hmmm]

No one is stopping her taking her children away herself and in deed she has done.

With regard to me paying someone to look after my horses and taking my daughter with me; well my daughter would rather have the child free time and it does not seem unreasonable for her to help me a little in return for giving her this freedom.

Ana It has occurred to me that there are some slightly odd posts asking for help on here at the moment.



It might just be me though

Has it occurred to you that perhaps your daughter would like to take her children on holiday herself occasionally?

If you can afford to take your GC away so frequently, then surely you can afford to pay someone to look after your horses for one hour a day and take your daughter with you...

Help !
