@rachele14 Our company sent out a survey a month or two ago and I said I’d like to come in to the office 2 days a week. I do miss my desk and the collaboration being in the office provided. I also enjoy the flexibility of WFH. (That’s all post pandemic, I’m good not going in the office anytime...

@naturalgraham4 No, I know it wasn’t your intention and was more an issue with that kid/his mom than any blanket statement. A lot of times it really does just come down to that kiddos temperament. Either way, lots of 2 year olds suck at sharing, so it wasn’t fair for the teacher to blame it on...

@naturalgraham4 Yes, I’ve listened to her podcast, and read no bad kids. I’ve also read how to talk to little kids. In how to talk, anyway, most of the examples are around hitting siblings, so that’s not helpful, but I do remember Janet’s advice and have grabbed his arm when he’s tried to hit...

@katrina2017 Are you paid under the table? Where is a nanny cheaper than daycare for one child?? Maybe a nanny-share, but once you factor in nanny taxes it’s absolutely not cheaper (and my kid goes to a pricey daycare so this isn’t comparing a crappy daycare with a nanny).
