[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know that she is hungry and tried. But holy hell. I telework 2 days a week so that I can pick up my kids from camp and spend some time with them...but the way she acted today makes me want to run to the office for cover.[/quote]

Because 6 is too young to go to all day camp [b]but it sounds like you don't want to parent much[/b] so you are going to get a cranky kid. Sounds like you need a nanny to help with the cranky hours so you can go run to your office.  :roll: [/quote]

OP here.  i was a SAHM until my 6yo turned 5yo.  i have now worked full time for 1 year.  i work from home 2 days a week to spend more time with my kids.

i don't play the games with people's feelings like you do.  i have been on both sides of it.

but go on feeling smug and spiteful.  i hope you are setting a better example for your children than the side you are showing on this parenting board.[/quote]

Don't listen to PP, OP.   People who post like that are very sad individuals.  They are trying to bring everyone else down to their level of misery.  [/quote]

The PP was not very nice in her comment about not parenting much but I have to say I am routinely surprised at the posts on this board along the lines of "I have no idea how to manage my kid's behavior."  If your six year old is a nightmare why are you allowing it? Of course give a snack and rest and downtime after a busy day but you don't have to allow rude obnoxious behavior from your kid just because she's tired, and I'm willing to bet OP does not discipline that when it happens. Otherwise it wouldn't happen more than once or twice.[/quote]

All you care about is behavior, and not what's causing it.    Neanderthal parenting.    [/quote]
