[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, we make $12 an hour, and our break is "nap time." In your post, you mentioned your daughter doesn't nap. It's not a real break for us if the children aren't sleeping. There's no time to think. It's a very stressful job. Her comment seemed okay. Remember, not everyone has good manners. It's not always intentional. [/quote]

+1 These people are barely educated and barely clear minimum wage. Why do you think they would be good resources? [/quote]

Ugh, how can you say that? I have an AA. Preschool teacher here. I went to college, and I still make crap money. Would you say the same thing about a nurse with a 2-year degree? [/quote]

That PP was very rude. I have huge amounts of respect for the amazing, high-quality day care workers who took care of my son so well, and taught me a thing or two. I appreciate you SO much!! [/quote]

Absolutely agree, I have so much respect for my kids' preschool and daycare teachers and am so grateful. All these PPs who sit at a computer in their pajamas wouldn't last a day wrangling that many kids let alone making it fun and educational for them. The gall of looking down on the people you trust with your precious children, makes me so angry.

And absolutely they know what is normal behavior and development and what needs attention or intervention. Some worthless BA degree doesn't give you that, it's the sheer experience of being with so many kids. I have multiple friends whose kids' issues were flagged by a preschool teacher and then needed ST/OT / developmental ped. And one of these parents was a Dr herself! But also smart enough to take the important info and not look down on others.[/quote]

Thank you. I know not everyone is like you. If people talk down on us, who do they expect to stay in this field and care for the children? [/quote]
