I started reading here when I was looking for a provider for my 3 yo. I have to admit, I had to stop coming, even though initially I really enjoyed reading here (not a provider bit a working mom - 8 kids so not inexperienced).
I would read all the venting about kids that cry or are picky or are generally difficult and the advice I'd always just term, there's better kids and parents. And that made me very nervous. My little girl had a very difficult time adjusting to care and I'll be honest, you all (mostly) seemed a little heartless. Now I just try to remember that people don't usually talk about the good, they talk about the bad. And I hope and pray that my day care provider doesn't term us for crying. :-)
