Parents sending children to cm while they are on holiday themselves

[susiemumof]

Not looking for a argument or aibu type thread.

Am new to cm and have a 6mo mindee 60 hours per week, mum has a day off next week (which she did not even need to tell me about) but has said she will still send said mindee as she would like a day to herself.

I actually offer a large discount on days when mindees are not with me so can't even put it down to wanting to get her monies worth.

Was just really wondering how common other childminders have found this?

It's obviously no problem for me to have the child and I am loving my new job, it just makes me a bit sad for the baby itswim.

you said dont understand why some people have kids
i called you on it
you disputed you said it
i c&p your quote
do you understand that?

what are you feeling so gotten at for
this thread was initiated by a cm judging the people who pay her fees moaning the mum worked 60hr, week. well so does the cm doing the minding!

You last post if you read didn't make sense. Where didi I say I disputed I said it? I know I said it because I typed it.

I don't feel at all I am gotten at.

I am not saying people that work should not. Have children. I said it was cruel playing with other peoples children when your own can hear and see you.

saltire work 50 hr week?
still at least shell empathise with working mums putting in this hours

Why the ? after the words "saltire work 50 hour week".

Scottishmummy- where did I moan about the mum working a 60 hour week?

I have pulled you and monkey up a few times for saying I have posted things but as soon as I ask you what post I said that in you both ignore it and carry on spouting all your crap.

You are the one that is going on and on and on about people working 60 hour weeks, makes me wonder how much you must dislike your own situation that you need to try and slag off those of us who actually choose to work these hours.

Saltmumof you have hit the nail on the head, I think scottishmummy doesn't like her own situation.

Susie you've been repeatedly called to account by many for your op,by numerous posters
you spent days huffing and puffing no judgment was intended
only to end up posting yes you do judge the mindee mum
...now peruse your own posts if you need clarification or reminding

I'm not the cm griping about parents who the pay fees,or sad for baby being minded, you seem to forget these parents are your livelihood

I'm not the person bemoaning my situation, why would I
I've got it all covered

Susie is not saying the mum should not work 50 hours a week! She is saying that having worked 50 hours if she has a chance to spend the day with her child, then doesn't Well it's a bit strange and many would agree with her!

I'm not surprised redglow didn't understand your post and I don't think she was refering to the bit you quoted. It gets a bit fragmented towards the end

Yes most CMs and nannies work long hours but many do that job because they can have their own children with them while doing a job they enjoy.

I love the way you are ignoring all the points put forward that stand up to your argument and keep repeating your own views whether they are relevant to the argument or not.

I'm begining to think you are trying to justify your own situation because of guilty feelings.

Scottishmummy, that post was obviously sarcastic/Tongue in cheek or whatever other way you want to put it.

Everyone else managed to get that it's only you who took it seriously!

so given your track record of back tracking,it was a witty riposte
oh gosh
reread, you'll see I'm not only person to call you upon this thread or your attitude to the parents who pay the fees.

Back tracking? I don't think so! Not once have I backtracked. Like I said the post you are on about is obviously sarcastic, along the lines of " yes I now admit it I do judge her for working a 60 hour week thank fuck it not me doing that" when all along I am working a 60 hour week and made that obvious from my first post.

Like I said obviously sarcastic! and I pulled you up on it right away when you posted in glee thinking you had finally "got me"

You seem a very strange person, and THAT is me judging! There is plenty of proof on this thread to back up that observation though.

lol,you did the where did I say sad indignation
then got all semantic about what bit sad for the baby meant when it was pointed out to you.
throughout the thread you've been inconsistent and prickly. getting all huffy if called on any points you made

Everyone - next time Scottishmummy posts just leave this thread at that. She clearly won't shut up until she's had the final word. She has turned this thread into conflict of CM V's Parents. No loving mummy or professional CM would have wanted that.

are you always so bossy? you see you're not mnhq moderator
nor do you instruct posters,by all means chose your own path
you'll have a hard task instructing on posts. given numerous posters Inc many cm took Susie to task
