And yes, then it was just like having a Boss! For quite a while I watched two school aged kids whose mother had a long itinerary of rules for what they were not allowed to do... and the kids, who were old enough to know better, were constantly trying to get away with things, like sneaking foods they weren't supposed to have. When I'd catch them, they'd say, "our mom is just paranoid, she's crazy!" and then their mom would come scream at me for "letting" the kids break her rules!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990195380265485924.post-2424386442082790552009-04-24T15:04:00.000-04:002009-04-24T15:04:00.000-04:00OH Rene, what were you thinking? You know that us ...OH Rene, what were you thinking? You know that us home daycare providers are not the "Boss". We actually have more bosses than a normal person who works out of the home. Most of them have their main supervisor, who has a supervisor, who has a supervisor and so on. "We on the other hand have two "Bosses" for every kiddo we watch at our house. The kiddos always determines what we do and when we do it and then at least one of their parents are always telling us what hours we are going to work and whether or not we should be doing the things we are doing. If that same child were getting ready to start kindergarten that same mother would have been saying something like "Shouldn't you be working on letters and numbers with the kids?" I think you should say to the mother when she picks that kiddo up, "Sorry to send your child home starving, but we were outside all day and, well there is no stove out there to cook with!"<br /><br />Sorry to seem so B*tchy but I had a mother forget to tell me that her child did NOT have school today until the child arrived at 3:45 this morning because the mother is too lazy to get out of the car at that time of the morning. So much for my Dentist appointment I had scheduled three weeks ago. Who's the boss there? It definitely was NOT me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556643577270504074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990195380265485924.post-71808204920620512182009-04-24T07:22:00.000-04:002009-04-24T07:22:00.000-04:00that's so funny. i think being your own boss is wo...that's so funny. i think being your own boss is worse sometimes than working for someone, because you work harder when you are watching you. <br /><br />Gwen<br />http://gwenmade.blogspot.com<br />http://gwenmade.etsy.comGwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459250233732225152noreply@blogger.com
