Frozen pizza isn’t part of that. I’m not anti quick, easy and cheap. Scrambled egg, omelette, beans on toast, Welsh rarebit, fish fingers, fine, frozen pizza, no, not really.
Blimey, what IS it that the pearl clutchers have against frozen pizza?! I can't see that Welsh rarebit is that different to pizza, it's just bread with cheese after all.
This thread demonstrates why there is a shortage of decent childminders. It's because the decent ones wouldn't stand for this shit from parents. Such moaning over trivia. Get a nanny if you want such prescribed behaviour from someone who looks after your child. I'd pick a childminder over a nursery because I want a home from home environment. Sometimes, in MY home, I served frozen pizza because the day demanded that that was the most sensible option eg one of them was not well and I prioritised giving cuddles over standing cooking, or we'd been out the whole day doing fun outdoor activities, or been swimming or to the museum or library. Sometimes we got so wrapped in something eg setting up a huuuge train track and then playing with it, that time ran away, it was getting late, and I viewed a throw in the oven tea as perfectly acceptable.
Childminders these days are being scrutinised more and more, and Ofsted seem to think they are akin to nurseries. For many childminders it's getting so the hassle is just not worth it. I could never be one because of that - I was a perfectly good and engaged mother whose kids turned out to be lovely young, polite, hard working and intelligent young men who are still close to us as late teens. For the life of me I cannot think what feeding them frozen pizza every now and again has done that has been detrimental to their lives. Please can someone explain.
