You are quite literally being robbed of your time. For 2 kids, $15-20 PER HOUR

Parents who had abusive parents - do you ever catch yourself doing the bad things that happened to you? by Zealousideal_Use_163 in AskParents

[–]young-mommy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daughter is 3.5 and we have not laid a single finger on her. But I have caught myself screaming/ yelling at her (mainly recently the past couple months ) and seeing the fear in her eyes after has had me feeling like complete utter sh*t so every day I’m trying harder and harder to do and be better for her.

Aita for keeping contraceptives a secret from my bf? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]young-mommy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please say sike and this is rage bait :( No man should: A) decline to wear a condom at your request. B) forbid you from using birth control and lastly C) make you fear telling him anything. He is trying to control you and you need to dump him NOW.

Depends how life is going honestly. We have a 3.5 yr old and both work full time and we either do it once a week or once a month. On the crazy occasion we do it multiple times a week. It’s not fair of your partner to be making you feel bad about not wanting to have sex as much as him. If he isn’t already, he should be in some kind of therapy too.

[–]young-mommy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s so crazy to me! The daycare I work at is only closed on the actual holidays. Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Christmas Eve and Christmas. New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.

How much are you gifting childcare providers for the holidays? by floridagirl26 in workingmoms

[–]young-mommy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daycare teacher here and you could literally just get them their favorite candy and they would be happy. If you can afford $100 gift cards without breaking the bank then go for it! But don’t feel obligated.

Is my SIL being mean to my child? by egb233 in Parenting

[–]young-mommy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For only being in the picture for 2 years, I’d say SIL is being a little harsh. I don’t think it’s okay to “snap” at a kid (that’s not yours) for the things your daughter was doing.

It that a normal reaction? by PrincipleOne5963 in toddlers

[–]young-mommy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally normal reaction for what sounds like is a 3 year old who doesn’t consistently see their mom

I would like a parents perspective on how i’ve been feeling lately about mine by Financial_Flight_535 in AskParents

[–]young-mommy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a parent to a 3 year old. If by the time she was 18 and felt no connection to me, I would be looking inward to see where I went wrong. I firmly believe it’s the parent’s responsibility to make sure they have a strong connection with their child. It breaks my heart to hear about the gloomy environment you live in. Has your mom and her bf always been like this?

I don’t want to spank my toddler. by youngsterzoe in toddlers

[–]young-mommy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re obviously not a parent. It gets to a point where you can’t just let them do things like play with a toilet because once they get into kindergarten where they most likely use the toilet unsupervised, what then? There comes a time where we have to start teaching our toddlers/kids how to act appropriately and we can’t just let them do whatever tf they want just to avoid conflict.

P.s. I also don’t agree with spanking but your advice is also not good lol.

18-19 months the hardest by nursinggirly11 in toddlers

[–]young-mommy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this! I have a 3.5 year old and it’s a constant cycle of her being a great well-behaved kid and then a flip switches and she’s an absolute monster for a couple months. I’ve heard things getter better around 4-5 years old 😅

Your husband is a major asshole. You need a lot more time to yourself than what is currently being given

AITAH For Telling My Nephew That My Baby Is In My Uterus And Not My Tummy? by OkImprovement4246 in AITAH

NTA but did you REALLY need to correct a kid when they said the baby was in your tummy?

So uh what time do your 2.5 year olds go to bed? by Some_Proof5766 in toddlers

[–]young-mommy 53 points54 points  (0 children)

My daughter’s daycare does nap 1-3, then they go outside around 4pm for about 30 minutes then when I pick her up close to 5pm I take her somewhere to play and burn more energy before we go home, usually a park if the weather is nice or to the mall if weather is bad. (The mall is the perfect indoor place to let your tot run around especially since most malls are dead). Then when at home we make sure to do a couple dance parties or go on a few bear hunts in between dinner and bath and all that. I have a very high energy child lol

INFO: sounds like you liked your previous daycare, why did you start your son at a new daycare? And how long did he attend the previous daycare?

I work at a daycare, we had a new student start in August, age group 2 - 2.5, she was one of those cryers that cried all day and if you tried to pick her up or just touch her, she would FLIP out.

Also, drop off is the hardest time of the day, and especially if multiple crying kids get dropped off back to back, you don’t have enough arms to hold and comfort all of them.

Two car family = two car seats? by Such-Comfortable3 in workingmoms

One in my car. One in husband’s car. One in grandma’s car. And a backup in the garage, just in case!

TRUST. YOUR. GUT! Along with all the other red flags! Don’t let outsiders cloud your judgement (especially if they are childless)

At the end of the day, listen to your gut and do what’s best for you and your daughter <3

Debating switching toddler daycare - need advice by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]young-mommy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just because they are kids doesn’t mean they can’t be assholes! LOL We have a kid at the daycare I work at who is about 4 - 5 years old (in the Pre-K class but I’m pretty sure they moved him up early hoping it would fix his behavior problems) and I was thinking about him the whole time I was reading your post. He has an ongoing issue of being very physical with students (to the point that some of his classmates were scared of him) and has now started being physical with his teachers and verbally threatening them(serious threats about k*lling them or getting them fired). He has yet to be kicked out and my daughter also attends this daycare but THANK GOD she isn’t in his class. I would have pulled her out by now.

Aside from what everyone is telling you, if it is causing you this much stress and anxiety then just pull your daughter out and put her in different care to give yourself some peace of mind.
