[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Couple thoughts- You have never yelled at your kid? Either you or your kid is a saint. Can't say most of us have not had a cross moment Most staff that works for aftercare programs- make crap wages, even if those of us that pay for the programs struggle. Try living in DC on less than $20 or 30 thousand a year. You might feel a bit cross about life also. Sometimes you need to yell to get through to a kid that is ignoring you. Hate to say it, but there are times it is necessary. Yes I know there is a cultural difference between upper class my poor child/ lower class deal with it attitudes in DC, but a little empathy both ways may be a good idea. [/quote] Wait a minute. You're the lady I see with the 3, 5, and 7 year olds when I dash to the Columbia Heights Target at 9:55 pm, aren't you? Tuesday night, school night, smacking the middle one in the back of his head because he was dancing and telling the 3 year old to shut his mouth because he was getting on your "last nerve" ? I have a question -- did you wind up buying the barbecue potato chips or the cheesy potato chips last time we saw each other? it looked like it could go either way there. And by the way, your son is a very good dancer for his age! ;-)[/quote]
