Trying to Work with Sick kids home?!@%&?!

My kids are driving me completely INSANE! One kids got sent home from school with Fifth's disease, another has a UTI, and the oldest is being homeschooled because he was assaulted by a teacher and the law won't touch him but normally he works well on his own when it is just him and me. Now they are all home while Dad is at work and they will not stop arguing and fighting. Can I sell them on ebay or what? I got so distracted that I screwed up a small paid writing assignment! ARGH!

Send them to bootcamp! LOL Just kidding, No opinion, I don't have any children, well Sasha but she's a rottie and I can't claim her as a dependent although I wish you could.

You need to take a deep breath, separate the kids from each other and take control of the situation. It will do no good to get mad and loose your temper as it just hinders the situation. Before you start working give each kid something to do and something that they alone can acomplish. Whether it be reading a book, taking out the trash.etc. Or take a break from work and do a project that all including you can do together to kinda calm everyone down

Seperate them, it's the only thing that might work. And you being the parent should be able to have control over the situation.

Reasearch Ebay fees and final cost and research what you think you might want to sell.
