When Ash says things about the childminder like “I know she loves Alf like her own” that really says it all for me about how much she loves Alf. A childminder might be really caring and build up a lovely bond with a child but there is no way they could love another child like their own just from seeing them in a childminder setting during the term time. It’s hilarious.
Reminds me slightly of back in the day pre-kids when I actually thought for a moment that maybe I loved my dog as much as I would love a baby. Don’t get me wrong - I LOVE my dog so much and he is a huge part of our family. He’s incredible and brings us so much joy. But obviously I would choose my child every single time if I had to and the love is on a difference scale and very primal (Sorry pup )
