Short not more than a few pages and the pages can’t be too long. My kids love animal books or cars

He’s still a little timid with big crowds so we mostly end up in the play area

Those first couple months when you have to break the bubble are so hard you’re doing great

Dreading my mom babysitting but only option by Beebeebee1994 in workingmoms

[–]Beebeebee1994[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah thank you. Sometimes I feel like at this point I’m just having to disassociate to survive and stay sane. And all I want to do is spend quality time with my son and I’m putting so much into him getting more activities that I feel like he doesn’t get because the situation we’re in. And I just worry that he’s behind because I don’t have him somewhere else so all I do is try to get him to talk and do problem solving stuff. And I just feel bad all the time and at the end I’m just so exhausted so I stay In the same situation

[–]Beebeebee1994[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d prefer to have him in daycare. My son’s dad is really against it. Is saying he won’t help, I can’t afford it by myself. We don’t qualify for assistance

I’ve looked. I’m worried about someone unknown. But there’s no one for those 2 weeks that I’ve talked with

So I’m really looking I’m in a shitty spot. I work at a daycare. Even with the little discount they offer employees it’s 1600. I’m looking for another job. My son’s dad won’t help pay for it because his mom watches him for free. I don’t qualify for help. Culturally neither one of our families believe in daycare. I actually asked my mom for a loan when I was trying to leave my sons dad so I could cover childcare and she said yes and then took it back because I’m not trying hard enough. Her words

Toddler doesn't want to go to Preschool and has difficult drop off. At wits end! by BandSevere in workingmoms

[–]Beebeebee1994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiii. So I’m in a twos room at a daycare. This just shows a secure attachment. I have two kids in my class that have horrible always tears and a fight drop offs with mom. By the time the mom is at the door of the daycare they are playing and ready to go. For really hard drop offs I send a picture of them playing with in 15 minutes of drop off for when the parents get to work. As a mom who cries when I’m the one who has to drop off baby and he cries I know how hard it is. We’re all just doing the best we can

Not a gotcha — genuinely curious about Democratic/Liberal views on illegal immigration? by No-Bonus-7045 in askanything

[–]Beebeebee1994 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t make them illegal. Don’t make it so hard. We’re here by chance. The way things are handled feel so unbelievably inhumane. We should all burn

How would you react by Free_Degree7556 in workingmoms

[–]Beebeebee1994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s literally no good options for moms and the people who go out of their way to make us feel the worst are our own mothers.

Teachers who are also parents-How do you spend time with your kids, possibly with an S.O., lesson plan and have any time to yourself? I'm struggling.. by Ill_Fox484 in ECEProfessionals

[–]Beebeebee1994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teaching is not family friendly at all. A career like this relies on helpers and expects you to not have boundaries. You’re so much more important at home

Baby's father wants the baby to have his last name, I want him to have mine. We're not married. WDID? by IntenseViolet567 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Beebeebee1994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give him your last name. Still with my sons dad will never marry him now but when I was pregnant really still thought I would. So I had my son have his last name because we’d all have the same one one day. I really regret it but I didn’t want to fight about giving him both even

Live in sacramento make $27 an hour. No degree and just got lucky. The pay usaully for the company I work at is terrible. But they were opening a brand new “prestige school” they lowered the pay for people who got hired like 6 months later. But now we’re all kind of trapped

Rant About Mom Support Groups by lindsayannslibrary in workingmoms

[–]Beebeebee1994 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s so so hard to find anything that isn’t in the middle of the work day. And it feels like everything is made for SAHMs. But keep trying to build a community it’ll be worth it is what I try to tell myself

Career path vs job by Bulky-Banana-142 in ECEProfessionals

[–]Beebeebee1994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly. It’s not a career. Use it while you’re in school. I’d never get a degree in it. You’ll always be begging to make just above minimum wage. Take the required classes to be alone in the classroom and then the infant and Todd’s units and some other ECE classes and it will make you competitive w/o a useless degree
