I'm in and out. Teachers hate moms like you.

eh, the preschools generally want parents to be in line with their kids and ready for drop off when the classroom door opens. It gets all of the kids started at the same time.

That has nothing to do with "pick flowers, wave goodbye at window, potty child (this happens before you leave the home), go back in for another hug" etc. This Mom may have nothing better to do with her day, but most people enjoy the process being as seamless and quick as possible. OP's person was able to do it in 2 minutes. I can do it in under 5.

Sorry. We can schedule sleep, meals, tv, books and play. But we haven't figured out how to schedule poop.

So now, to defend your assertion that no parent could possibly do drop off in less time than you, you're claiming that your child poops daily upon arrival at daycare. Do you assume all children poop immediately upon arrival at daycare on a daily basis?

You sound nuts.

Good for you. I'm saying that simply walking my kid in with the crowd of other kids/parents walking into the school, standing in line at the door and waiting for it to open, giving a quick hug and then walking out and back to the car is more of a 10 minute process.

Now if I waited and zoomed in with my kid as a straggler...yeah, I could do it much quicker but I don't think that the teachers appreciate that too much.

Do you do the same ridiculous 20 step process at pick up? Because the OP is about pick up, not your child having a poop and seven special hugs at drop off.

If I ask her to go at the house, does that mean she doesn't have a medical condition or anxiety?

But I also think it's fine to leave a baby napping. Though I would turn off the car.

What day care are your kids out that permit anyone but their legal guardian or their designee to sign them out?! Our day care permits the parents and anyone else they have previously authorized in writing, with photo ID. That is not going to be some random mom, even if it's a mom of another kid in the same class.

I don't know. I never had any of my 4 kids who always pooped at school drop off.

Okay, so now you're saying it takes so long because you're waiting in line.

See, I thought it was because your child was pooping at drop off every day.

Lol. This is getting funnier and funnier.

Then I defer to the wisdom of someone who can afford daycare for 4 kids in DC. You win.

Do you really think this bitchy OP low balled the time? Not likely.

haha, true. Yeah, the mom is obviously aware that baby is in the car and moving fast. Me, I can't drop off baby in less than 10 minutes. Husband takes 2 minutes tops to pick up.

I'm not the one with the long list. I explained exactly how drop off works. Pick up would mean getting to the school, standing in line for my child, getting my child from the classroom, walking back out through a crowd of other parents/kids, possibly having a quick chat with other parents/kids on the way out. Again, this is not a 2 minute process. It is closer to 10 minutes.

You could be speedier by always being a bit on the late side and being one of the last parents there to pick up your kid.

How would it be faster? Would you not pick the flowers? Would your child not have another spontaneous poop need? Would you not do the wave at the window, then the return to the classroom for ANOTHER hug? Because based on your extensive list "zooming in with a straggler" if you then LEFT would probably bring the teachers a lot of joy.

What do you do with your other children during this time? Or wait, let me guess, only one special pooper on demand?

Not all centers have a finite start and end time, more of a window, so it would be very unusual for all parents to arrive at the same time.

Yes, you could. And if you were an exhausted mom with a newborn who was sleeping in the middle of winter or bad weather, that is likely EXACTLY what you would do, don't you think?

So I'm in the MYOB camp, BUT I hope teachers don't hate moms who take a long time, b/c I have trouble getting it all done. The benefit of me is that my kid always falls asleep on the way to daycare, so I'm putting LO into crib rather than dumping a crying kid on the floor. Then, when I get to the sign in/out, there's usually one or two pushy parents who jump in front of me to get out the door first...

I dunno, man. My friend left her laptop on the floor in the back of her car for THREE MINUTES at 11am on a Tuesday and her car was broken into and laptop stolen. No f'ing way I'd do this. My baby means more to me than a laptop.

I'm not the one with the flower picker bathroom visitor. I don't have an extensive list. That's a different poster. I get there shortly before the door opens, I stand in line for my child, I get my child from the class, we leave the school through a crowded/busy hallway and go back to the car. I have my other child with me.
