Around this time, every single week, I get a message from a parent which sends my bp through the roof. It's always a negative text, often complaining about the care the dc's have received.
The dc's bad behaviour is always excused and other factors are blamed.
Last week's text made me very cross because the mindee had told three different lies which could have got three different children into trouble but could have been totally avoided had it been discussed in person rather than via text or if the mother had taken a bit of time to think about what her dc had told her.
I feel like I'm always on the defensive and dread the days they come to me because I know there'll be some issue at the end of their week with me.
I've never given notice before but know plenty who have and for far less.
Very fed up
