Hi,
I'll be going on my summer vacation soon, I don't have sick days, my last vacation was in Christmas so at this point I really need a break and I want to spend time with my children I open my door every single day Monday to Friday. I have this family was has being with me for long time and I have good communication with the dad instead of the mom dad is more friendly and loves to chat but when it comes to my vacations I see them unhappy, I don't charge for my vacations so I don't know why they act like that they take holidays and travel everywhere I get to listen all their plans I like the child because he is use to me and he shows me that he cares about me but he seems to have ADD but the parents don't look at him like that and I don't want to get into that, he is with me everyday and I don't get any days off sadly but their lives are too busy I was expecting from the mom to say at least have a nice vacation but NO but it's fine but she send the boy chewing gum I was not happy at all really I want to go on my vacations with a sense that I deserve my time I truly work so hard with him because parents don't discipline him, I do all kind of activities with the children but I need a break but they think I am a robot I need my break and I am a daycare provider not a parent to the child. I can't terminate because it's not a huge issue but I really want to feel appreciated once in a while I get some from other families but this one I was hoping because the child needs my 100% attention, I rarely hear a thank you so sad.
