[quote=Anonymous]OP answering as many questions as possible.. 1..The parents on the whole are Great and I do like them. Db is better than mb... I do extra chores like clean refrigerator when youngest is sleeping..Take garbage out if db forgets and kitchen doesn't smell too good..wash their sheets cleaners leave in laundry room after I do my charges laundry..Twice I shoveled snow in the driveway because db was away to help mb..I combined playing in the snow and shoveling with the kids..I always clean up whatever mess is left from mornings rush off. 2..I take offense at people questioning how experienced I am at my job..You would be amazed at the change in the oldest since I started there....At 2 she was like the adult and what she wanted goes..She demanded and the parents thought it was easier to just give in..I changed her into someone who now ask politely ..Now what I can't seem to fix is the fighting and running around..The parents while on board for tantrums and rude behavior do not follow through on time out for fighting because "siblings always fight"..I hate this part of the job when you know differently but have to stand back allow certain crap parents with no clue wants..With the running around the parents smile..I grind my teeth and look at the clock because even though they hardly run around for me they do so as soon as I leave the room... WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST ..YOU CAN'T GIVE TIME OUT OR ANY FORM OF DISCIPLINE FOR THINGS PARENTS ALLOW...it's not fair to the children I can give warnings or separate them but what does that accomplish when par e n t s walk through the door and undo every DAMN thing you do, My dba once said to my daughter it's so cute when my charge throws a tantrum (she was 2) ...I thought let's see how he will like it when she's 16 and slamming doors and yelling...well it happened sooner..8 months later he could not stand it.. All I was asking for was the opportunity to decide whether I wanted this huge undertaking of delousing kids and home thrown at me..I don't get paid if I don't work...I was docked 1 hour PAY because of medical app. After that day I realize I will do my job to the best of my ability but I don't owe this family squat...and delousing is alot to take on even for a family who's better than mine...Just like the extras I do I want the opportunity to decide what I chores I want to take on.. (Look at my previous post about job discription nowhere does it say and whatever else comes up)[/quote]
