Why is it so awful?? I’ve got a 7 month old so no idea but I never understand how it can be so terrible when you only spend about 20 minutes a day doing it! (But I’ve heard other people say it’s terrible not just you!!)
Drag small recalcitrant children through a howling gale and horizontal rain to the school, past long lines of cars spewing out fumes, often having to walk out into the road to avoid cars parked on the pavement.
Shiver in the playground while being made very clearly aware that you are the lowest of the low by the bitchy mums.
Battle with approx 150 children and their parents, many of them pushing buggies/carrying babies, all trying to get into one small room at the same time.
Remove/hang up coats and bags on a peg that has 7 people between you and it.
Convince reluctant children to go into their classroom while they wail that they'd rather stay home with you.
Walk home. The moment you get home the sun comes out.
5 minutes before you're due to leave for school pickup, the horizontal rain starts again.
Repeat 20 times a month for approx a millennia.
