Both my daughters' phones are breaking and the only choices we have is to pay £200 each to get them fixed or to send them back to Google but don't know how long that will take.
Obviously, we have chosen to send them back, which we will be next week but my eldest is not happy at all. Her phone is very regulating for her and plus they are both teenagers so phones are everything. My other daughter, she has a friend who is going to lend her his old phone so she still has one but Chloe, on the other hand, there is no spare for her at all. The only option we have is for her to use her tablet whilst at home. She is already stressed about the whole situation and when the time comes, I just have a feeling she is not going to cope at all.
On top of this, it is the school holidays so all our children will be at home, unless we/they are working. She won't be able to leave the house unless with one of us for safety reasons. On Wednesday, this is the day she works and gets upset if it is changed, and if her phone is not back, she won't be able to go because she won't be able to contact me for help if she needs it. I am just hoping that I can distract her with Criminal Minds, her special interest, and hope for the best. This is really not an ideal situation at all, for anyone.
She is also not sleeping well, so is very tired and miserable, making everything x10 worse. Today, has already been a difficult day because our son has his friend over and she absolutely hates them together as they are really noisy. I took both my girls out to sort their phones which is when we got the news above. Our son broke a sensory toy, which Chloe said anyone can borrow (she had a huge sort out and there was no space for them), so got very frustrated with the boys and took the toys away from them. I've since had to take the boys and our dog out so she can calm down in a quiet environment.
If you have any ideas on what we can do with the phone situation, anything at all, it is greatly appreciated. I just had to rant mainly today because we've had an eventful few days! Thanks
