[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t even explain how annoying this is! I’m in a situation like this and I’m putting in my notice because I can’t take it anymore. OP, you nailed it. It’s fine when they’re younger, but when they get a little older, the presence of a parent just makes things unbelievably harder. [/quote]

Do you think the parent(s) would be open to your suggestions? Like having them put the child down for nap? This would be the only way I could deal with it (I can go clean up, eat my lunch etc.,) or you can relieve me early so you can have extra time with your child.

On a schedule, not with you sitting and waiting for 15+ minutes to see if you should just start.  Btdt, mom wah irregularly last position, kids were in preschool and elementary.  She only would wah a few days if she knew she was working 9+ consecutive days and 12-16 hours each day.  Her thought was that she’d see/enjoy the kids, while reality was that the kids made distracting noises, started games without checking that she would be on a conference call and continuously wanted her attention.  She’d tell the kids to not leave the house without her because she wanted to take them to school/play date/whatever.  So, we’d sit around for however long, waiting and kids getting into trouble because we weren’t supposed to start anything and leave it out.  If I took kids so they would be late (school or play date), she got mad at me for not waiting.  If we waited to go to the park/movie/other fun thing with her, it’s be too late by the time she was ready or she’d cancel after an hour (or longer) and blame it on me, I should have just taken the kids.  She did the same to dad, so at least I knew I wasn’t the issue.  And she wouldn’t close the office door, use a barrier or stop light/sign.  So frustrating!  For me, it was rare enough that I just bit my tongue, but I learned quickly to just get them out of the house before she said wait.[/quote]
