    Awful CL ads Again

    It's been a couple weeks since we've had a 'terrible cl ads' thread.. I'm always worried I'm going to post an ad belonging to someone here. Anyway-here's a rambling mess. Love the last paragraphs...Oh, and she spammed it about 15 times in a row. Also-who lists their references and their contact info on the ad????



    There was another ad that mentioned she kept her ratios low, so she was only going to have up to 6 kids...ok..don't word it like that's special..that's the state max for unlicensed homes!

          They will NEVER end! I wish my state could shut these people down, but that will never happen either.

          One lady here says she will buy food, but has to use her food stamps...

          Another illegal unlicensed woman says how they will go to the pool every day (our ratio is 1:1 for pools), has a trampoline (a big no no)

          One says she was certified in CPR years ago, but has lifeguard training.

          One says she will only take $5 an hour, not even sweat shop workers make under that...no one around here makes that as a fcc if you break down weekly rates.

          I could go on and on.

            If she is so freaking smart ("bachelor in science managament cum laude") then why doesn't she know how to spell, use proper capitalization or punctuation?

              I don't trust anyone that offers 24/7 care, all ages, cash only, no contracts.....I am sorry but that spells fishy to me.

                        Even still that's a pretty revealing to me.
                        Cover those things up

                          I think it was MV who said prostitutes/escorts use ads like these... it looks like it's for babysitting, but it's really something ENTIRELY different. Although, in my area, the escorts are pretty straight forward about what they really are

                            That's what I was wondering about. Read the last line where most people say that no one should contact them about anything other than this ad.

                              This one is awfully weird to me... :confused:

                              Do you have a "taboo" way of raising your kids? (Beliot or your home)

                              Is your way of raising your kids consider taboo by the so called normal childcare pros? Or do you have a way of family love that some consider taboo? If so contact me as I don't judge and will follow your guide lines. It can be stressful on a child to have one way of things being at home and then when they go to a babysitters they have to pretend to be another. I have experience with taboo family love myself as a child and understand there stress.
