    OT - any advice welcomed...

    DS is moving schools this year, he's 12 in June. His old school had an after school/nursery that ran until 6pm. The new school appears to have after school clubs like football but no formal homework club to keep an eye on him.

    He tells me he is too old to go to the childminders any more, I don't have any friends or family who could take him after school, and I don't want him roaming the streets all evening or sat home alone.

    I'm currently self employed and work my own hours so it's not a problem, but I had it in my head that I'd go back to having a proper job when he started big school. Only problem is that if I do then there's three hours between him finishing school and me getting home.

    Does anyone have any suggestions of age appropriate supervised childcare for a 12 yr old? Or am I better off waiting a few years before going back to work proper?

    This is a nightmare for most parents. I used to have a military operation going, with the kids going to various friends houses each night of the week, and then I would have all their friends for a sleep over on Saturday night so the friends' parents got a night off... it was hard work, but it worked really well and the children's friends' parents would be fighting to have me kids during the week! We once had 16 kids sleep over!

    if we are playing trains though it will keep him quiet for ages.

    I hope he makes all the train noises as well:)

    DS2 is busy preparing for the a̶p̶o̶c̶a̶l̶y̶p̶s̶e̶ clock changing.
    Alarms are set, a selection of drinks and snacks are on hand because he always wakes up hungry, his toilet light will be left on from 11pm (because he'll need a visit before he embarks on the drinking and snacking)
    And best of all I have had to swear on oath to be available at the precise moment to check everything capable of having the time on it has changed and to change any that haven't.
    He's also suggested, out of the kindness of his heart, that all mobile phones should be surrendered to him before bedtime so that he doesn't wake anyone up on his sweep of the house to check everything is showing the correct time.
