Yeah but what if it's a single mom? Or...and we see a lot of this....mom is here in the US but Dad was just deported back to Mexico, leaving her to raise the kids on her own. And sometimes, even when there are two parents, one of them may be the sole provider for the family and may have a job that isn't forgiving of missing work for any reason. Sometimes those families have to make tough decisions. They could lose their job if they stay the night and then lose their home, etc.

We are always understanding if family cannot stay. We always try our best to not make them feel guilty for leaving and assure them that their child will be very well cared for while they are gone and that they can call at any time to check up on their child.

I'm not speaking for anyone else but myself. All I know is if my 5 yr old little girl is in the hospital and she's sick to the point she's vomiting her own feces, there's no power on this planet that could pry me from her bedside.
