I cannot wait to get these kids out of the door tomorrow & close my doors for 12 glorious days!
DCM says she is going to pick DCB up early today at 1:00. I KNEW it was not going to happen, yet I still planned my entire day around this kid leaving. 12:55 I get a text from DCM saying she will be here at 2:00. I know its their time but man that really just irritated me bc DCB is SUPER whiney today. Its nap time & I need a break!!!- Flag

[QUOTE=Play Care;619185]I would have put him down with the other kids and had mom text me when she was pulling in. I refuse to change the schedule at all. Ever.[/Q
I changed his schedule today because I usually nap him in the same room as my own child, & everyday he has to cry himself to sleep & its soooooo loud. So I normally get him down first around 12:30, & then my child goes down at 1pm. Im just mad bc every time a parent tells me they will come early, they never come on time! EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.- Flag

Teething 10 and 12 month olds. Whiney, fussy, emotional kiddos. 1 hour left in the day, and I broke down and turned on a Barney movie. No more whining, fussing, or baby wrestle mania. We have done art, naps, busy boxes, free play, snuggles, and LOTS of food, Miss A is daycare lady-ed out.- Flag

If I worked outside the home I would NOT take the week after off. It's such a waste of vacation. But it allows my kids to play with their toys, have friends over, etc. without day care. But I always feel like I spend my vacation from cooking, cleaning, and child care, doing cooking, cleaning and child care- Flag

I work at a center and I was supposed to have today and tomorrow off, but one of our lead teachers decided to quit without giving any notice. Now, I have to work all day on both days to pick up her slackLiterally, I was working with her on Tuesday and she gave no indication of her intention to leave. Needless to say, my director was P*SSED. On top of that, new dcg 1 decided to poop in her pull up, take it off, and sit down on her sleeping bag, and poor dcg 8 got sent home with severe abdominal pain (like she was crying and lying in a fetal position.) So it's been a fun day!

So frustrated with parents who think your responsibility involving their child is equal to what their responsibility for their child is. I should print something out to give these people that shows the definitions of PARENT and DAYCARE PROVIDER. I know this is the age old issue, but I will never understand why parents are more concerned about getting "their money's worth" or getting their stuff done than taking care of their children. Ok........vent over for the day..........I needed that already this morning!- Flag

I have VERY clear divides as to what I view as a parent responsibility and what I view as a provider responsibility and my parents are "well educated" in that regard and if not, I have zero issues explaining it to them.
The need to "get their money's worth" is met here abruptly and swiftly with a tilt of my head and a scrunched up confused look on my face and the words "your child does not have a monetary value" type lecture....- Flag
