*cough* *cough* *cough* is today's naptime. No one is overly sick but they all seem to have that annoying and nagging cough that means no one gets a good rest.

My God...some days I feel like I could scream...both babies crying all morning. My dcb (3) refusing to change activities and then major meltdown when I turn off the tv. It goes off at the same time everyday and with warning that tv time will be over in a few minutes so we can start circle time!
He then throws a kicking and screaming fit in the refocus corner for a good 30 mins....I kid you not. Done with this day!!! Dcm drops of sibling of above dcb with a "could -----only have water instead of milk? He doesn't care for milk...he's kinda like me." Ahh yea....but he's a child and needs milk....did that ever cross your mind lady? I calmly said that water is always available but I'm required to serve milk with meals. GRRRRR!

So 5 minutes before I walk out the door, 5 year old dcb has a massive poop accident on himself. I had to pry it out of him and was about 2 seconds from just snatching the back of his pants open. He could barely walk and was stinking to high heaven.
Then spent the next 10 minutes scrubbing it from his legs and bum....the poor thing was thoroughly embarrassed by the whole thing, but jeez...poop on a big kid at 6 pm??? Grrrr...Comment

Your kid is not CUTE or SMART he just repeats everything he hears and we all hate him. Even you dcDad know that he's a pain in the ass but you love him. I and the other kids in the daycare that he makes insane on a daily basis do NOT love him or find him the least bit funny or adorable. Why oh why are you putting me in the position of termination and blowing you out of the water because you don't get the fact that your son is annoying, stupid, challenging and worst of all there is some type of food allergy or something that I've been gently and kindly and professionally asking you to address for the past year & 1/2 and I'm so so so so sick of the up the back/down the legs diarrhea. We HATE him, dcgirl pushes him and I have to discipline her because he's clueless about anybody else in the world. Oh it's sooooo ridiculous! Termination next month!Comment

Oh my goodness. I beg you to find a new line of work. This job is NOT for you. There is so much hate and anger in this post that I know that if any of your parents read this, you would not have a business. I don't wnat this to be mean, but you need some help I think. This is not a typical amount of anger in you.Comment

YOU should turn in your license ASAP. No child should be put in your care-ever. In this post alone you said these horrible things about a CHILD-
not cute
not smart
we all hate him
do not love him or find him adorable
not the least bit funny
annoying
stupid
challenging
HATE HIM
dcg pushes him (this is dcg's fault?!?)
clueless
You are a HUGE B I T C H that should not be allowed around children. Never ONCE have I thought of ANY of my daycare children this way. This post was over the top with hate.
I also recommend therapy.Comment

At some point in time I have found almost all of my daycare kids to be a tad annoying, or challenging. They're kids, it's what they're supposed to be! I have never HATED them. I can't imagine why this poor child in your care for the last 18 months isn't thriving.... kids understand soooo much and there is no way you can mask this level of frustration and anger with a small, defenseless child.Comment

Wow. Why are you doing this job?? Is it all for the money?!?!?! Must be! I have had a rough time with some tough kids, but I can't imagine saying the things you have said! Your daycare kids deserve better than they are getting! If you feel this way, let that poor child go on and find a home where he will be loved. Sad.Comment

Oh wow! I admit, I have had my fair share of kids that have tried my patience, but I have never felt this way about a child before. I think you need to take a step back and think, I mean REALLY THINK about how you would feel if someone was saying this about your child. I highly suggest you find a new profession asap. If I ever felt this way I would hope someone would say something like this to me.Comment

You know what I find funny/odd?
I find it funny that everyone jumps to help, support and console a provider who forgets a child in a vehicle for 30 minutes but when a provider comes on that uses less than PC language about a child in their care, everyone jumps all over her!
If we are so willing to forgive, validate, console or comfort a provider who could have potentially killed a child, why can't you all find it in your hearts to offer support or help to a provider who may need it the most?
If she is using language or words towards a child that you view as mean or harmful, why not ask why? Why not ask her why she feels that way? Why not try to help?
Do you really think she HATES the child? I am sure the post was heat of the moment.
I have read some words/posts here that I don't always think are appropriate either but we all come from different walks/classes of life and I have read many providers posts using words that I find offensive or words I would never use.
I think it is the word she used that has everyone in an uproar. It IS a strong word but unless your own mouth, mind and posts are free of any judgemental thoughts and words, I think the first thing any of us should have done is tried to help this provider NOT condemn her for venting online!
Thank God she vented on-line instead of keeping those feelings bottled up inside or taking them out on the child!!
I have been a member of this forum for some time now and I am still dumbfounded at some of the things that get posted here and still even more surprised by some of the replies.
In the last week, we have had a provider come VERY close to having a tragic situation happen to her ALL due to HER own behavior and we have had a provider use the word hate about a child in her care in a venting thread and who gets the help, sympathy, kind words and support?!?!
FWIW~ I am NOT condoning either post/member's behavior but I do think there is something wrong with the world when we can comfort and support a provider who almost kills a kid but condemn one who says mean nasty things about one on-line.
We DON'T know what kind of provider Cozyhome is. She may be the most loving caring professional provider out there and because she keeps it all together for the kids and parents in her care, she HAD to come to the venting thread and get it off her chest. She may not have used the best language but at the same time, she HAD to get it off her chest. Who knows for sure. I don't. Do you?
I doubt very much that NONE of you have ever had a mean, hateful or cruel thought about another human.Comment
