I have been having a problem with one of my DCG, who is 2 yrs old. She has been hitting & Biting her brother, who I also have in my daycare. He is 4 and a half. I talked with their Mom this morning about her biting & hitting and if she does this at home also, which she does.
My vent is not about the biting and hitting issue, but the realization that we providers spend more time with the kids then the parents do. Found out that this dcg's parents only spend 1 hour with her at night after picking her up from here. They feed her dinner and then she goes to bed at 7pm.
It is like WOW! One hour they spend with both the kids at night! I guess I AM raising their kids! Parents don't seem to really take the time, or have the time to really spend with their kids these days. How sad is that!!
