Parents are dumb!! [Long]

[sunnydays]

I think we need to remember that this is a public forum and is a website where parents come to look for a prospective daycare provider...when they come to do their search, the forum is right up there on the home page...and if I were a parent looking for care, the title of this post would definitely catch my eye and would probably anger me. While it can be challenging dealing with differing parenting values etc, I do think we need to be careful not to scare new parents away from home daycare by referring to them in such terms. Sometimes it is simply because new parents really don't understand what it is like to care for multiple children...how can they understand if they have no experience with it? I think it is our job to help them understand in a repectful way.
