But my child care coordinator gave me great advice: deal with the issue and move on. If you have a parent who is repeatedly violating your wishes over and over -- that's kind of on you. You need to deal with it and make it stop. I'm a glass half full gal and I like to make people happy... it makes me happy too
I can only speak for myself but I didn't imply that I was bitter in my job, just that I don't think poor behaviour on any level, with respect to any situation should be rewarded.
