Dumb@$$ Parents

[littlemissmuffet]

You really think you can take better care of child than the parent of the child. Ha whatever and I'm sure at some point in your child's life someone else was able to better care for *your* child. I do not deny that all parents are great I know some pretty ****ty ones, but the way you all talk on here is as if you talk down on all parents just because they do differently than you. Not every house hold is the same and that is okay. Just because a parent doesn't do something you think they should be doing as parenting does not make them a bad or irresponsible or neglectful parent. Some people just do not know how to parent because they are still learning. As long as a parent loves their child and does the best they can that is all that matters. You can be the best parent in the world and your child could still grow up to be a monster or you can be the worst parent and your child could grow up to be amazing.

No, it isn't all that matters. Some people THINK they are doing their best when they are not. A junky prostitute that loves her child and is "doing her best" in her own mind... is that all that matters in her child's life? Exactly.

Alot of parents these days need to try harder. Again, of all the parents in the world - do you seriously believe that childcare providers who deal with dozens and dozens of parents throughout our careers aren't going to deal with some very terrible parents from time to time? And do you really think we don't have the right to discuss this issue with our collegues? Who are you to decide that?

MarinaVanessa is right. This forum provides an outlet to vent about our work. Just like any other profession, we have our gripes, but unlike other professions, no co-workers to gripe with! All us together on here are like co-workers! And everyone knows it, providers and parents alike, this is a tough job. Thank goodness for a forum like this for support, advice, and ideas for running a better daycare. I love you all, even if crabby "Unregistered" doesn't!

Baloney- Some parents don't want to learn. They keep having kids because the government will give them more money each month. They don't see any picture except the here and now and the selfishness of themselves

That is true, but a lot of parents are first time parents who do take care of thier child without govt assistance.

Unregistered users are more than welcome to post...if the posts are not rude and deliberately argumentative. When a thread gets out of hand and degenerates to namecalling and rudeness, moderators will step in and take care of it. We were asked to address the issue. I felt the thread (which was fine in it's original form, fyi) was getting out of hand. I asked for everyone to put a stop to it. I'm merely fulfilling my role as moderator.

if you don't like it, don't be rude.[/QUOTE]


Some of the members of this forum have also been rude and argumentative, from what I have saw today looking through a lot of these threads.

Yes....and when necessary those issues are addressed. Generally, in private. Because that's possible when it's a registered member. When it's unregistered, we handle it publicly out of necessity. And if the problem continues, we ban you anyway. Capiche?

So people who do not register in this forum are trolls??!! Wow! I didn't know we were in middle school.
No, you can't comment on here because you are not apart of our group, club, whatever you people want to call it.
What is the difference in signing up and commenting unregistered? Either way it is going to be anonymous!

Also, you COULD log in and then you wouldn't be unregistered. But you would still be trolling because you're being deliberately rude and argumentative.

Part of the problem with parents is that they feel that they are "owed" something. You are owed NOTHING. You chose to have your children, therefore you are OBLIGATED to your child and if anyone owes anyone anything, it's you the parent owing your CHILD the best they can have in life; sacrifices you have to make.

You have to pay daycare so you can work. Without a good provider, you can't work. You have to decide for yourselves what your kid is worth, and often times, I got requests for $50/week FULL TIME. That's all your child is worth, yet your Lexus is definitely something you pay on time? And the FULL rate of what the dealer/lienholder asks you for every month. You don't default on THAT loan because if you did, that company will come get your car and God-forbid some of you drive something more reasonable. You are LUCKY that providers care about your children enough to not gouge you like these dealerships you are MORE THAN WILLING to pay, and as such caring providers, you owe THEM respect AND whatever pay they ask for for caring for YOUR child who should mean much more than your CAR. (Or your nails/hair/shoes/clothes/boyfriend/etc). But yet, childcare is exactly where parents want to CUT back. That's RIDICULOUS!

Want to be a parent, then BE a parent and afford your child opportunities to be raised with love, respect, and with an understanding they should be the MOST important priority in your life! Stop being so frugal when it comes to your child's care, and be frugal in other areas. It's like your cable, your car, your (your and your) is more important than your own kid. Sacrifices are to be made when you choose to have a child, and if you are that selfish that you can't sacrifice for your kid, then you should not have any!

You think Providers bitch and moan on here and maybe they do, but it's a DIRECT RESULT of what you parents are doing to deserve the vents that are put out here. Don't want to pay but expect providers to lie down and take it? You don't think providers have bills to pay just because they stay home? You don't think that providers have families to support? Or when you show up late without notice, you don't think your provider actually has a life or family? When you decide to bring your very obviously sick child to daycare you don't think that affects your provider, her family and the OTHER families in her care? What about when you forget supplies or bring the wrong attire for outings. YOu don't think that your irresponsibility affects the entire daycare as a whole? Providers vent because there is a reason. If you don't give them a reason, they won't have a need to vent. Simple as that.

[Kaddidle Care]

you all sound like a bunch of silly day-careless, disinterested teen providers with a need to vent your clinical grade frustration with your dead-end jobs..

if you don't like, or are not capable of, giving proper care to tender little kids, especially after making their parents pay through their noses, u should really find another job..

You people are a bunch of idiots!! I have been looking at these threads on here and all of you seem so bitter about your job. A lot of you judge parenting styles. Just because you work with children everyday and run a daycare does not mean that you are miss know it alls!! Get that straight. I am sure a bunch of your kids are just as screwed up. Everyone makes mistakes as parents, even you stupid judgemental people!!!
