Some of you might remember my recent thread about an almost 2 year old that started biting the end of his pacifier off. Well, I said on that day that he would no longer have it here and he has been 100% fine with that. Doesn't give me any problem with it at all. He still comes with it in his mouth, but when he comes in, dad puts it in his bag. He doesn't even look for it during the day until the moment mom comes to the door. Fine, he can have it leaving here. I dont' care what they do at home. Well, today mom brings him, he has his pacifier in his mouth, fine. He puts it in his bag. She stands and talks to me for a minute. Then she says to him, where is your pacifier. I said, he put it in his bag. She reaches in, picks it up and puts it in his mouth. I'm asking WHYYYYYYYYY?!!! Idiot.
Would It Be Wrong To Slap A DCM?

Direct approach is the best... but, the passive aggressive part of me would come down to his level, and whisper loudly... Guess Mommy forgot our rule of no paci's in the daycare, should we give her a time out?, hahahaha... all while holding the bag back out to grab it. Some parents, just are clueless:confused:- Flag

I have to say that I'm not usually at a loss for words, but she just dumbfounded me this morning. She continues to just irritate the crap out of me. From day 1 she has been a pain in the ass. She is one that I've complained about how she just walks in the house without so much as a knock. I typically lock my door, but sometimes someone will have just left and she just walks into my home and scares the daylights out of me. The last time she did that a child was getting ready to go and he was standing inside the door. She burst in and nearly got him in the head with the doorknob. I told her right then, you need to knock because you about gave him a concussion. Then she also argued with me before about him coming with a fever. I posted that here before. She said oh you consider 100 a "real" fever? Ahh yea. She was one that complained when someone had a cold and was here because her child might get sick, but yet wants to send him with a fever. She is just a complete dumbass.- Flag

Good suggestions you guys.
Oh and also this morning, she gets here at 8:00. She says, oh he'll be tired today he was up early. Oh, what time did he get up? 6:45. Okay, that doesn't seem early to me. What time did he go to bed? 7:30. Okay, rumdum, how long do you think he should sleep and what time do you think he should get up when you have to leave the house at 7:30?
Also since he got up early you fed him breakfast right? Ahhh no.- Flag

Can you afford to term them?
It just sounds to me as if they are really not a good fit for you and rather than allow the resntment to build (and it will) it seems a better solution would be to let them go and for both you and for them to find care that is a better fit.- Flag

Perhaps stuff an article or two in the diaper bag about how pacifiers after age 2 can cause:
"Dental malocclusion (misalignment of the teeth, such as open bite, crossbite, or overjet)'
Physicians are often asked for guidance about pacifier use in children, especially regarding the benefits and risks, and when to appropriately wean a child. The benefits of pacifier use include analgesic effects, shorter hospital stays for preterm infants, and a reduction in the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Pacifiers have been studied and recommended for pain relief in newborns and infants undergoing common, minor procedures in the emergency department (e.g., heel sticks, immunizations, venipuncture). The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents consider offering pacifiers to infants one month and older at the onset of sleep to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Potential complications of pacifier use, particularly with prolonged use, include a negative effect on breastfeeding, dental malocclusion, and otitis media. Adverse dental effects can be evident after two years of age, but mainly after four years. The American Academy of Family Physicians recommends that mothers be educated about pacifier use in the immediate postpartum period to avoid difficulties with breastfeeding. The American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Family Physicians recommend weaning children from pacifiers in the second six months of life to prevent otitis media. Pacifier use should not be actively discouraged and may be especially beneficial in the first six months of life.
"Prolonged pacifier use and thumb-****ing can cause problems with the proper growth of the mouth, alignment of the teeth and changes in the shape of the roof of the mouth," AGD spokesperson Dr Luke Matranga said.

I was a thumb ****er (while sleeping untile age 5) - every Dentist I've visited has complained about my maloccusion. While some find a buck-toothed kid appealing, I can only say WHY?- Flag
