Parent on Vacation

[playfelt]

One of the reasons I started doing an item of housework during freeplay goes back to when I had a single mom in care who used to complain that all weekend her son would whine about wanting to come back to my house cause all I did was play with him. I started making them play by themselves during freeplay while I chose my own activity for freeplay so they learned that adults have work to do to and our job in life is not to entertain them and that it is reality to do things like laundry and dusting and not just on Saturdays.
