Venting Thread

This thread is therapeutic! You can seriously bare you soul without judgment. The best part, there is ALWAYS someone or many who have gone through your problem and offer advice.

Today’s rant.....pancake day(home made blueberry pancakes)
Boy comes early( doing mom a favor and taking him 1 hour early), he sees pancakes and says I WANT CEREAL. Mom says Miss LostMyMarbles will get you some, go sit by your friend.
I said no I won’t, it’s pancake day! You can either eat pancakes or go do a puzzle and wait for the others to get done..... and the crying fit from this 4 year old started. So what does mom do, whips out the tablet! Yes, the very some kid with the broken tablet, which was finally replaced !!!

BTW, blueberry pancakes??? I'm there.

Parents just don't get it.
While I can empathize with a parent not wanting to leave their child during a screamfest, if they could only realize what this does in the long run. Especially at 4 yo. He needs to get it...now, because the fits will only last longer and get more demanding as he grows.

I wish *I* could turn back time and redo parenting with my own children because I learned so much more as a provider, being able to distance myself from the heart strings of issues like that one.

I swear I am going to kill my husband.

He thought it would be a great idea to buy this rubber ducky blow up bath tub and let the toddlers have at it.

It is cute. It looks kind of like a boat...

The toddlers LOVE it! Like obsessed, "don't touch it, it's mine love".
All out war was declared sometime Tuesday afternoon. They break for snack and once in a while and nap time and sometimes they will get distracted...'Oh look a squirrel!!!" but then they are right back at it again.

So far my strategies are:

• Ignoring.
• Reminding.
• Warning.
• Loudly exhaling.
• Removing.

Rinse and repeat.
Thankfully it's Thursday.

I am secretly hoping it gets a hole in it.
Soon.

, my husband suggests items like that too. Then wonders why I sit there staring at the toy imagining how it will be played with, start twitching and say "Some toys no matter how awesome they are, don't work in group care."

• I have not seen the sun for 11 days now.
  
• I don't want to be back from vacation, it went too fast.
  
• A hurricane interrupted my vacation.
  
• I got sick on vacation, lost one day to bedrest and am now taking two different meds.
  
• Four out of six of my DCK's are also on meds with raging diaper rashes.
  
• I am wearing my fat jeans, today.

Yes, I will take some cheese with all that.

Bless your heart:hug::hug::hug: Hope you feel better soon! lovethislovethis

Thank you <3 I am feeling better, DH is starting to come down with it, now.

We knew we were in trouble when the lady seated on the aisle of our row, for an 11-hour flight, was wearing a face mask and refused all meals and snacks.

Best of luck with your Baby Fight Club! I have had a few toys that I've had to give away because they were TOO loved. Causing bites and punches. Sad that it comes to that, but they're too young to reason with, so the toys have to go.

I just zipped my hair into my hoodie. Please, just bring on the weekend, already.

We are short of teachers because one is student teaching and one (who is also the administrator) had surgery. The owner hired one girl and gave her a two week trial and during her trial, her real personality came out and she quit and we thought we had hires another girl but she texted the owner this morning and changed her mind at the last minute. We need people that will actually work and not complain and do their job
