I know...and really I do let kids go...with grandma or whoever...even just on text/phone call verification from the parent I know. But dcm says that this dad is prone to being very random, and she says it's likely that he could show up with no id or verification and want his kid. He's kinda tried it several times already by calling me without me hearing from mom. I really don't want to have to turn him away from the door, so I keep trying to push back and tell him he needs to sit down and meet with me and dcm.- Flag

Then I get flaky divorced daycare dad, who I've never met call me (again), and ask if he can just fill something out online and come get his kids. No dude, you need to schedule a meeting with me and your ex-wife so I can meet you so I can recognize you, and I don't wonder if I'm turning the kids over to the right person when you show up.
FTR, I loathe uninvited guests. :::
: I've got nothing to hide, I just like to enjoy my schedule, my way, uninterrupted.

People from the various agencies we deal with who show up without properly introducing themselves or proper ID. Don't they know how creepy that is?
I really want an email introduction first preferably with a photo. I had to call one agency this past week to make sure a person was legit, and then today I had a person show up...to deliver a flier. They had ID and I didn't let them in (they didn't want to come in), but why come by just to deliver a flier?

Makes me want to get some major security out the front!- Flag

I think it's OK for the parents to see what your day really looks like. Maybe they will realize our job is more than sitting around all day.- Flag

@bumblebee: had an amish friend of ours in tennessee get hit last year in a buggy that he was riding in by a distracted driver, it was 3 adults I believe in the buggy and no children were involved but one had to be airlifted to a local hospital and they didn't know if he would live or not and our friend has bruises aand and a sore hip but he is better now. How was the amish that was hit?
The first an Amish gentleman was critically injured, 2nd a horse was killed. Both of those the buggies were destroyed. This one the buggy is damaged but was upright and in one piece.- Flag

Red lights are a suggestion here. People treat them like stop signs
When my dd and I were walking every night we were nearly hit so many times by drivers not paying attention.- Flag

3rd time in less than a year that an Amish buggy has been hit by a vehicle. In all 3 instances the Amish were not at fault.
There's been serious injuries, horses killed, buggies smashed.
Distracted driving is ridiculous. Pay attention to the road. Heading home from shopping tonight I almost got t-boned because someone blew a stop sign.
Just angry tonight, this needs to stop.- Flag

What is the fascination with butts or the word butt with boys. I had one say the word but over and over last week. He was on time out , talked to, reasoned with, you name it. His mom said he was saying it at home and disciplined repeatedly. He is over it now.
Today another one is pushing it with butt talk. Ugh!- Flag

Unexpected early pick-ups! UGH!
I always feel like it's chaotic when it happens. All the toys weren't picked up, sink was full of dishes, food was out from snack time that just finished. Just UGH.- Flag

Just got informed that parents are looking into Montessori school for their kid who has been with me for over a year. They are going to look when she is 3. I had been banking on having their infant here in September plus the older one. Kinda feeling bummed and taking it personally.
They didn’t say anything was definite but I have to cover my coveted infant space so they will be getting notice in July. Buh bye!- Flag
