Hi guys
So I’ve been working for this wonderful family for a no work and am just noticing something really annoying. I work together with a stay at home mom and 3 children, youngest ones are almost 3.5 years old twins. Lately they’ve been really crying and whining a lot, and mom always gives in to everything just to make them stop crying . They will throw themselves on the ground anywhere, parking lot, park, school... and just cry for attention Every time they want something like a cookie, she says no, they start crying and she will give it to them anyways just to keenthem Quiet. They don’t do this when I’m alone with them and they have an older brother who does that too, i love them very much, but I don’t know if I’m Over reacting or what’s going on. Also, she feeds them still otherwise they won’t eat. The other day moms friend came over with her kids about the same age, the friends kids ate nicely by themselves, no crying, whereas the kids I’m babysitting were all around my mom boss crying whining and she was feeding them???!?!!! It’s starting to drive me crazy Thank you for your response and please don’t be mean, I love them, and i hope i can somehow get this to go better But the mom is very rude and I don’t want to bring it up to her |

| You are overly attached for being there only a few weeks. You find mom rude, but live the kids, even though they’re spoiled brats? Find another position, and keep your boundaries professional. |

| They are definitely spoiled brats! Poor kids, it's the parents fault. Those kids don't have boundaries or limits. |

I have gotten attached to kids after a few weeks also. Sometimes a bond just forms. It happens. |

| Parenting, desperate for her attention is not spoiled. |

| Twins can be very difficult and hard to manage. I have twins and one throws a lot of tantrums for random stuffs and I don't give in so there is a lot of crying in our house, but not every day, it depends from what is going on in her life and yeah sometimes they don't want to eat and I feed them and sometimes they eat on their own. Twins love to compete for attention and that is what happens, so far it all sounds normal beside the mother giving in on everything they ask, things will not change that way. Just give a different perspective... |
