[quote=Anonymous]Everything seems to go to sh!t!!!!!!

I take care of b/g 5 year old twins and we have a pretty good thing going. They are in routine, they listen great, the day goes well. Minimum tantrums as well.

MB is home for a sick day and they are throwing fits. Running around like maniacs. girl twin wont eat because MB says oh she never eats the whole sandwich. She eats the whole sandwich everyday, all the time, never without fail for me. boy twin freaks out because he gets green plate instead of blue plate, MB sneers, "did you let him pick his plate???" NO you get what you get and you don't throw a fit. They have plenty of choices during the day but sometimes when you're trying to get hungry kids fed its just better to do it all yourself. girl twin screamed at her mom at the top of her lungs and she didn't even put her in time out, nothing, just ignored her and gave in to whatever she wanted. She would have never EVER screamed at me like that. And if she did she would have immediately been put into timeout until she could calm herself down. I would never tolerate that.

I also got told that its better to just clean up their toys myself because even though they made the mess they will just get bored cleaning up and not put things back in places. HELLO- thats why you monitor it. You make them do it but show them where things go. Also make them clean up before going tonext activity so you aren't overwhelmed with a million different toys to put away.

She just told me she is staying home from work for next two days because she's having anxiety problems and low blood pressure. I'm going to go freaking insane if i don't get some ways to deal with her. We are normally pretty friendly but she is messing up the day big time!!! Help!!![/quote]
