[quote=Anonymous] OP, any kid you work with is going to try to push your buttons. You cannot be taking things this seriously and personally if you expect to be able to work with children past the verbal stage. If you need and want adoration from the children you work with, then perhaps you should be working exclusively with infants. Toddlers, preschoolers, and older kids to are all working on independence from caregivers, and a big piece of that is intentionally pushing buttons and trying to get a reaction out of you. If you stay calm and get your emotional support from some more appropriate source such as a peer of any kind rather than from a child, then they will see that the behavior gets them nothing and move on and be able to bond with you. If every time a small child is "mean" to you it hurts your feelings, then you are in the wrong profession as a nanny. Kids don't do crap like this to their preschool teachers. Maybe you are better suited for that field. [/quote]
