Not an ugly parent story!

[Littledragon]

That is amazing!! What a wonderful family! I am SO glad that you were noticed and appreciated for all the hard work that you do/did!

It is a little depressing that we seem to only vent and share about the mal treatment we receive. It would be nice if there were more stories like this. Especially from me lol I tend to concentrate on the bad treatment and keep the good treatment to myself.

The other parents I have (even the ones who had been giving me trouble since the beginning) are fantastic! My older boy's mom told me yesterday that since he's been here, his language level has improved drastically and the fights with his brother have decreased dramatically.

My other family, who I have had trouble with since the beginning, has begun showing me appreciation as well. Since I "made" them start bringing him full time, she says that his mood has increased (he's very moody) and he seems happier and talks more freely.

And them showing me gratitude and appreciation have made me return the favour, and be a little more patient with the little annoyances.

It makes me feel so good to be told that I am benefiting their childs' lives especially these past few weeks where I have been questioning what I can really offer the kids.

I hope your post makes people think more about the good in their daycares, and concentrate on that - even if it's only for the weekend
