[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I swear you're the poster of the twins one is picky and one is not. Both of you wrote a short novel and use ds dear son when referring to a nanny child[/quote] Yep. I can't even bother to read op's novels.[/quote] Yep go ahead and pat yourselves on the back. Yes, I posted on behalf of my friend K and I also posted about my charges separately. So? You don't have to read my "novels," just move on! No need for snarky comments just to point out the obvious (I like to think I'm thorough, but perhaps long winded is true also). For anyone still curious about the ongoing saga: K was planning to send that email (asking one last time if she could take DS to the park) this week. But when she showed up for work Monday morning, MB had a medical "boot" on her foot, and said that she "attempted to take DS to the park by herself over the weekend, but he bolted into the street and MB tore a ligament trying to chase and catch him." K suspects that MB is stretching the story (MB never mentioned how exactly she injured herself, just "trying to catch DS"), in an effort to make her reasoning for keeping him home (it isn't safe to take him out even if mom is present?) seem rational. We agreed that whether she is stretching the truth (if so, it shows how insane she is), or telling the truth (in which case she will never get rid of her ridiculous anxieties about her son going out) it is seriously bad for DS, and for K's chances to ever get to take him to the park. K has decided that she doesn't need this reference too badly (she has also been working with two other after school families for the past 18 months, so she has good references from them, as well as previous references). Her after school families have also offered more hours over the summer, so K will be okay financially if she quits. She is deeply concerned for DS (and MBs mental health), so she has drafted an email expressing her concern for his well being, and explaining that it is not right to keep him locked in his room most of the day, or to not allow him to go out and experience even the neighborhood park or library on a regular basis. She goes on to say that she does not feel comfortable working under those circumstances any longer, and gives three weeks notice. She plans to send the email next week (since MB told K she has to wear the boot for 4 weeks K didn't want to leave her high and dry while injured, or give notice so soon after the injury occurred). I told her to send it to both MB and DB, but she doesn't have DBs email. So, for those of you who made it through my "novels," thanks for listening/reading.[/quote]
