I would simply tell him how your husband always tells you how great you are. Start praising your husband. He'll get the message. Guys don't like competition. He's obviously not happy in his relationship and is hoping you are not happy in yours.

sorry Michael, had to.

He's right though, he's hinting around, waiting for the signal from you. don't give him it. Tell him in words you are comfortable using, that you don't appreciate it, and that you will have to let the family go if this continues.

I would say my husband likes this scent too. I agree he is fishing. You are one smart fish not taking this bait.

good job! Some guys think they are so smooth taking advantage of someone who is forced to be in their presence.

I recently terminated a family because of the dad and his "problems" with being too familiar...not in a flirty way but just ALWAYS trying to insinuate himself into our lives as if he was part of our family...too many personal questions, too much chatter about him and his life, too much chatter about ME and my life, always trying to make some close , personal connection to us...we just couldn't stand it any more and I finally picked a fight!

I felt stupid doing it but I just had to get rid of him....I couldn't even go to the door anymore and my husband was handling the drop off for me....not a very professional way to act so I decided before I ended up in a pyschiatric hospital, it was time!

I'm a lot older than a lot of you on here so I haven't actually ever had the "flirty" dcd problem and I sympathize with you women who do...as someone mentioned, in the corporate world, he could be facing a sexual harrassment suit...not pretty!

I hope he pisses off the crap and leaves you alone...

This DCD is pretty good looking but his ego knocks him down- and the way he talks blah.
In my centre where I am on an extended mat leave from, there was a GORGEOUS dad and every time he came to talk to me in my office I went beat RED- at least if I was in a room I could hide with the kiddies

Anyway,
Thank You so much for all your support and advice, you gave me the confidence I needed to make a stand!
It is refreshing to find a place that allows one to vent and get some positive feedback
Cheers

I had a parent that was like that too. After the second time, I told him to knock it off and I told his wife that I didn't appreciate what he was doing/saying. She dismissed it saying it was just his personality and not to be offended.

A few weeks went by and no issues. Then, one day I was taking care of a teething infant and my assistant let him and the children in. He went as far as telling her he would pay her "X" dollars per hour if she would just quit working for me and be his families personal nanny! My assistant was very uncomfortable and said that no matter the money, she was dedicated to me and that he couldn't afford her! LOL That afternoon, they got their term papers. BUH BYE!

Ugh, thats what I have going on now...A man called Tuesday to set up an appointment to see the center and enroll his son. He starts off with "Hey....this is _____." Thinking he was someone for one of my co-workers and or a wrong number, I keep asking questions and he keeps giving vague asnwers...just as Im about to hang up...he starts to set the appointment...for yesterday at 1.

He shows up today at 10 am...I would NEVER schedule a tour at 10 am because I am knee deep in 3 year olds at this time of day. He calls from the road and requests me by name! My director thought he was my boyfriend!! I begged her to please do the tour for me because honestly he creeped me out over the phone...he called me "boo" and "baby" the whole time. They did the tour and let the son spend a few hours with us to see how he fits...his son is a sweetie.

The dad returns around 2..which is the middle of naptime, to pick up his son. He just appears at my classroom doorway...which was strange, as the downstairs teachers usually let me know when someone's coming up the stairs. The lights are mostly off...he's asking how his son did, "boo' this and "baby" that...He's hanging around, with this sideways grin...I said "Yeah he did great...he'll fit right in! Hope to see you guys soon!" and turned my back.

Im almost hoping he doesnt enroll the son...so I wont have to deal with him. I already have one dcd calling me once or twice a week to check on HIS son...which I dont think is completely altruistic either

UGH.

So I know how u feel.
