    Is it just me or is everyone feeling a little bit on edge trying to make sure that their program and themselves as a caregiver comes off as above reproach and "perfect" sounding because that is what is coming across today on several of the threads on this forum. We are all going to have to deal with annoying misbehaving children at some point and we may very well not handle it in an ideal way and life will go on regardless and we will do it differently next time.

    I haven't been reading a lot of posts lately so I'm not sure what you are referring to about everyone being on edge.
    I do have children misbehave as all children do, but I have to be honest and say that I don't have any children that have full fledged temper tantrums. It's a fact, and I'm sorry if it upsets people that I don't have tantrums at my daycare. Not preachy, not judgey, not trying to toot my own horn, just stating a fact.
    I guess I just have been lucky over the last ten years to have non-tantrum kids. Yes they cry, get angry, need some time by themselves, try to break the rules, but I actually have never had a kid that falls to the ground and flails about.
    Sorry, it's the truth. I should be allowed to state the truth without having to defend myself.
    Everyone posts truths about negative things and everyone supports them.
    Yet I am trying to tell the truth about a positive thing and am defending myself.
    Weird.
