[quote=Anonymous]Here's the thing.

There are some children that are kind, concientous, say please and thank you, and treat you kindly. They don't hit you back when you say no, they help clean things up when they get knocked over, and they don't scream or cry to get their way. You find yourself laughing, enjoying your time, thinking to yourself "this is why I went into childcare." It's easy and fun to be with them. They give you hugs, hold your hand, and like to be read to. They make you think you'd like to have a child of your own one day.

But then there's the kids that hit their brothers and sisters if they don't get their way. That won't look you in the eye when you try and speak to them. You can tell there's no "special needs" going on, but no matter what you do the kid won't respect authority. You notice the parents struggle and are exhausted. The kid is generally unkind, impolite, rude, and a pain to be around. They want to play videogames all the time, but when you play games they lack any sportsmanship. No matter how much positive feedback, teaching, guidance, correction, and praise you try to offer, the child is difficult. You find yourself looking at the clock and waiting to get out of there because they're [b]a total pain the ass.[/b]

I'm taking care of a kid that's a total pain in the ass. I'm ready to throw in the towel.[/quote]
