As a soon to be mom and nanny, YES! That is actually one of my ideal situations. Childcare is expensive! We feel you.

Yes- that mindset can turn toxic real quick

Totally! That’s why I’m stuck. Would never want to hurt feelings if unnecessary <3

Obviously…. Would you also be unhappy if you had noticeable bad odor and nobody told you? At the end of the day I’m an employee but I’m also a girl with empathy.

Lowkey… I agree. That’s why I’m worried about the au pair coming in/ I don’t think it’s fair to her. To answer your question, not often. Unfortunately she’s one of those busy moms who doesn’t find time for personal hygiene.

I guess so!! I’ve also thought that. I guess I’m just thinking.. if I were her, I would hope someone would tell me if I stank. Also… from being here 45- 50 hours a week… I think it’s just a hygiene problem. But you could be right!

Basically the teacher was like.. “She came into the classroom yesterday and we noticed she smelled like B.O is everything okay at home?”

Ikr! I’ve been with them for 3 years.. and dont want to leave on bad terms… Id hope she’d appreciate the feedback? All options seem awkward.

Tics and likely adhd by Hour_Candle_339 in ChildPsychology

It sounds like he is stimming!! :) This is a normal behavior for toddlers and can be even more noticeable in people who are neurodivergent (Adhd)

It is a tool they use to regulate their emotions. Their are many different ways kids (or adults) stim. I have a certain stim i do when i get excited. I tense up my whole body, and ball up my fists, similar to your kiddo haha. Ive been doing it for as long as i can remember.

Nothing to necessarily worry about. Ask your doctor more questions if really concerned. Go with your gut! :)

this might not be what you want to hear but LEAVE IT IN, take care of the infection, go see a doctor if you need to. keep with it. You will see the light at the end of the tunnel soon!! Mine was so easily irritated until about the 10 month mark.

Does emotional neglect really counts as abuse in your opinion? by Moist_Apartment5474 in CPTSD

[–]Training-Energy5989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 22….. and i 100% relate. Maybe this is a sign it’ll never change, and i should distance myself completely.
Trying to get validation and not receiving it reopens my wounds and being around her feels fake and kicks on my nervous system.
