[quote=Anonymous]IMO (and experience), people who do not like BH centers are not going to like any center.  They are the parents who are not involved in their child's education and YES it is education, at least starting in the toddler rooms.  We love our BH, but it takes work.  You have to talk to the teachers and the administration and let them know you want a partnership with them to do what is best for your child.  You have to take time at the beginning of the day to treat them like people even when you are running late for work.  You have to take time at the end of the day to (patiently) wait for them to have a moment to chat with you about your child's day.  Our BH had to send out a reminder to parents to please let the teachers know when dropping off or picking up a child from the class.  Blows my mind to see some parents literally open the door so their child can walk inside and then close the door.  The afternoon pickup is as in-and-out as possible for some and of course you are not going to be happy when you are not putting forth an effort.  It is still the parents' job to raise a child and teachers cannot be expected to keep something like potty training consistent when parents do not communicate with the teachers about what is happening at home.  ::climbs off soapbox::[/quote]
