[quote=Anonymous]OP. I have not asked to go home. I merely suggested that since hey really are taking charge and I am sitting on a couch, maybe she can give me the rest of the day of so they can bond. They looked uncomfortable and I was too.

Caring for diarrhea, vomiting and high fever sick child was never something I said I could do, though I did that with humility and care. I did much more than in my job description, I cooked special diet for the whole family, almost daily, not only for my charge. I got bags and bags of groceries, I got him to swim comfortably in a pool, took him to the pool the first time and last, as they're not swimmers. I scrubbed their mildewed washing machine with a toothbrush. I cleaned their fridge for two hours (she said "thanks, I didn't clean it since he was born"), I soaked and brushed the carpet, floors and upholstery covered with vomit after I came back from a weekend. I dropped books to the library, I took haircuts, doctors and other appointments. I did more and often what was beyond in my contract, and I was paid an $18.5 hr on the books, no benefits, standard leave.

My boy will surely recover, as kids have great resilience and I think I managed to teach him at least a tiny bit how to have compassion, sympathy, and be caring. I felt shattered after she made mean spirited and insensitive comments, as I think I gave a lot for this job and deserve a little respect. [/quote]
