True dat.
My sister never let hers out of her sight when they were younger - it was all arranged play-dates at her house. We pretty much ran wild when we were younger.

Also we were farmed off to our Grandparents for long stretches of the school holidays. Okay it was necessary because of Mum & Dad's shift patterns, but she has stayed in part time work purely so that she is available all through the school holidays.

Nothing wrong with that, they can obviously afford it. But I wonder what they will do when A goes off to Uni in a year and a half. I have a suspicion that my sister will change jobs in order to earn more money to support her. It has always been about her, rather than my nephew.
