[quote=Anonymous]You're not unreasonable, OP. I fully expect a brand new AP to still be trying to engage my kids. This means maybe watching a movie WITH your sick child, cartoons, reading a book to her in bed, or asking if she wants to play games in bed. I'd ask them both if she actually tried to do anything or simply put your child to bed, then gone off to do whatever she wanted with her "extra free time." If she did absolutely nothing, then I'd reiterate that this was supposed to be work time and taking care of a sick child. Keep an eye on whether she actually does her work, such as child related chores or similarly goofs off because no one's monitoring her. Could she have been doing laundry or something else she's supposed to be doing instead of watching tv? If she did try (confirmed by both), then great. She did her job and there really wasn't anything else she could have been doing for your child at that time. Maybe all the chores were done too.[/quote]
