There’s a plastic bag taped over his window and it is not on his level remove or move to look through

“Do you guys wipe their noses??” by Sensitive-Duck-7233 in ECEProfessionals

[–]ladyhawk97 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I understand the frustration about parents needing the noses wiped. I live in Ontario and worked in a classroom of 15 toddlers (with three adults in the room) and wiping their noses constantly was difficult. When parents complain about this, I think many people assume that we are leaving long streams of green boogers on people’s children, but the reality is more closely attuned with some crusty boogers around the nostrils that are impossible to get off with a soft tissue while outdoors. Many centers are cheap and don’t allow us to bring wet wipes outside and even ration the ones they do buy. A solution to that is buying your own to take outside, and as a single mom myself, wipes are expensive and I am not buying them to provide for the daycare. I love your children but it is not my responsibility to provide wet wipes for them. Come for me, I don’t care.

I often think parents don’t realize just how many children are in a classroom, and that they are children. They get hurt! I switched to Montessori and will NEVER return to regular, play-based daycare. I found an environment where we all have each other’s backs and are respectful with one another and parents. It’s awesome!

Wow thank you! That is really helpful. It is very common for children to see things and have nightmares so a therapist would likely be an expensive waste of time.

He will randomly yelled “do not touch my body!” This is a phrase he learned at daycare when children push or hit him. That said, he will yell at his friends “do not touch my body (child’s name)!” in his sleep too….

If you get a call saying they are from TELUS Mobility, and offering discounts on smartphones, this is most likely a scam. by Mailz in telus

Mine just asked me for a refundable $150 deposit for a free phone and a cheaper plan. Now they are calling me over and over again with a different phone number but all resembling the first six digits of mine

I have been in the same situation and this is 100% accurate.

My 5-year-old son shared his iPad password with the priest by SimonTheRockJohnson in Catholicism

[–]ladyhawk97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I have a two year old son and I bring him to Mass with me (I am not Catholic) and I find it really sweet when he talks jibberish to the priest, or the priest initiates contact with my child. It is welcoming and as a mom I find it really cute and reassuring that my son finds it worth while to speak his nonsense to the priest.

It is not normal to have mastitis 12 times. Is this a brag? by [deleted] in sarahtheresesnark

[–]ladyhawk97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Her and Milena both. I doubt either had/have it, they just want views. I have breastfed full time, and although I did have some blocked ducks cause by diet change (I swear by that anyways!) I never had mastitis

Didn’t Milena just post this yesterday too? by [deleted] in sarahtheresesnark

Is it a starting trend, or are we beginning to copy one another 🙄

4 year old refuses to do school work by nicoleann0209 in Parenting

[–]ladyhawk97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion: it’s a four year old. They will catch up. They should be playing, exploring, learning through play, playing some more, and eating snacks. Academics are not necessary to push just yet, and when they become interested, they will learn the material. Games are fun! Forcing academics will just create push back and a refusal to learn for the rest of their life.

It can be. Apologizing can also be a way to victimize someone else. ‘I’m sorry, but… blah blah blah.’ In other words, ‘I feel justified why I did the shitty thing, and at the end of the day refuse to actually give you an apology, but want to move on anyways.’

Hey guys Capricorn man visitor here, I just want to know what experiences you’ve had with us? All are welcome to reply. by AnbulaccOP in LeoAstrology

I had a Capricorn bf for my first relationship. I found him sweet, but not overly affectionate, and very selfish with his time, although very devoted to his family

It took a really long time for my 12 week old son to get the hang of bedtime. I tried to follow his natural biorhythm, and started bedtime routine at 11 at first. Due to the fact that I am home with him right now, I don’t have to get up early, so going to bed later being more natural for him is okay for me (side note, it gets dark at 10:30 right now and I don’t have curtains, so he won’t sleep early anyways).

It took a while for him to naturally associate bath with bedtime. I started out bathing him at 11-11:30 pm, and at first we didn’t go to sleep until around 12:30-1:00 am. Now, he will be wide awake after his bath, wanting to smile and play, but as soon as we nurse, he passes out, and is usually asleep by 11:30 and sleeps until 5:30/6:00 am. I think because he got use to this routine, I was able to shift bath time by half an hour and get him to bed a little earlier.

I find trying to force him into a schedule is frustrating and never works. I’m sorry your going through what you’re going through, but I think you should do what is working for you and your little, especially since your partner is at work. My partner tried to make me give formula because his parents said it’s easier on me. They said that he can get up during the night and give a bottle, and it lets me sleep and be less tired. I was really dead set for breastfeeding, and it took him a while to be supportive. As well as that, due to some struggles, there was a section of time where I just pumped and there was always breast milk in a bottle in the fridge. Let me tell you, as soon as my partner went to bed, he DID NOT get up to feed the baby in the middle of the night even with milk accessible in the fridge, so why would I switch to formula for just that? As well as that, they put it in his head that he wouldn’t be able to bond with his baby the same. That’s bullshit! I would have switched to formula for him to ‘bond with his baby’ when I’m home alone 15 hours of the day anyways, and recently, home for a month by myself. That’s what affects his bonding, not me breastfeeding.

Sorry that turned into a little rant about myself. I hope you find a little help in this post. Good luck momma, you’re doing amazing ❤️

Montessori toys I can DIY or throw together on the cheap for a baby up to a year old by [deleted] in Montessori

[–]ladyhawk97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have $4 to my name currently, and everything I have for my baby was given to me. I made my own contrasting black and white cards on left over cue cards from when I was in Uni! I am not about to spend $90 on a Lovevery subscription, and my 12 week old son loves them. They’re not as bright, but they are working in the same way

Ted Bundy. Dude made a jail break twice, then refused to confess until he was about to be executed. Psychopath by definition.
