[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just had an au pair move in yesterday - it’s been awkward. She alternâtes between spending some time with us and then spending hours alone in her room with the door closed. Im sick as a dog. I’m trying to care for my 3 y/o and he’s a complete handful. He’s pulling things off the counter and kicking and screaming when I try to change his diaper. I just grabbed his leg when he kicked me and said NO loudly - which made him cry and I feel like an awful mother. My husband has been away and out of cell service range on a 4 day fishing trip. I have no family nearby to call. I really want to ask the au pair of she could watch my 3 y/o but she’s been intent on sitting in bed on her laptop doing "classes" … Our au pair was in country already and was in friendly rematch with another family. She’s been here 7 months, she’s not homesick. [/quote] Ew. Your three year old is still in diapers? Why am I not surprised you can’t handle him alone. [/quote]
