Do You Have This Kid?

[MissAnn]

Tattles on everyone
Constantly states, "You are not the boss of me!"
Tells me what I am doing wrong
Tells everyone what they are doing wrong
Tells me I forgot to do such and such
AND most irritating of all, reports to me all the "good" things she does including:

• I went potty
• I flushed
• I washed my hands
• I threw away my paper towel
• I cleaned up (but she doesn't)
• I didn't touch anything after I washed my hands
• I'm being quiet now (ummmm, no)
• I'm not interrupting you now (yes, you are, to tell me this)
• I'm being nice to my friends

Oh....and I've never seen a playroom clean out of kids so fast. When she enters, they exit.

Working hard to help her become a more enjoyable kid to be around, for the sake of all of us.

Mine JUST misses the kindergarten cut off! First to arrive and last to leave. Nearly 50 hours a week with this one. Every day at the lunch table I say, "It's time for other kids to get to talk and it's time for you to eat", then she takes bites and makes throw up noises. I just love it when the other kids say...."That is not good manners!"

You will need to celebrate in 27 days!

I'm betting the parents praise her for every little thing she does and she's become a praise junkie.

Mine leaves for kindergarten in T-minus 4 months. Counting down the days!

Exactly. Every morning I have to listen to a new joke the girl has to tell. You can tell I am supposed to laugh....more than a little laugh. Then she tells the joke to every parent who arrives. Well, she did, until I made a new rule that kids have to stay away from the arrival area. Since she is the first kid here...it's at a time I am in morning rush. The mom sits on a chair and stays about 10 minutes.
