[quote=Anonymous]The rule about food upon start has been healthy snacks only, no candy or junk food. Same rule about tv, it doesn't exist while I'm on the clock. I'm used to both of these.

I thought it was odd that the pantry is mostly filled with junk and it is very hard to pick through to find the healthy options. I've been here 3 months and the two kids are terrors when it comes to discipline and meal time. I am not allowed to discipline them, at all. MB doesn't believe in it and when she has them, I've discovered she uses candy and tv time to bribe for good behavior.

I have a feeling my MB is trying to ensure the kids don't end up liking me over her, or maybe she feels guilty about going to work. Either way, this arrangement isn't working because I have no freedom to discipline the way I normally would, and can't even resort to using her methods of bribery, which is not healthy in my mind, but would at least keep consistency in the home.

Have you dealt with a similar situation? Is there any hope of salvaging this job?[/quote]
