    Whoa, that mom needs a major dose of reality! If she wants to give the grandparents a gift that wasn't even made by her child, buy one!! How ridiculous....."here grandma and grandpa! My dcp made you a lovely craft but we'll just say it was from me!" Lol

    I'm not even sure how'd I respond tbh because I've never had anything even remotely similar happen....good grief, some parents! Haha

    Glad you're going to term. Mom doesn't deserve your childcare services. Hope u replace with someone that respects you. I feel bad for her daughter being parented this way; it's going to mess her up.

    I can't help but feel that the mom just wasn't equipped to be a parent yet. Perhaps she came from a home where she didn't have to do anything for herself through until she moved out. So as a mother still just expects others to do everything and really doesn't realize that just isn't how things work in the real world!

    Maybe the grandparents would enjoy doing it with the child

    possibly, but more and more I find that parents dont want to do anything with their children, and basically want to get them home feed them and put them into bed.

    You would think. The grandparents are really nice and will bring me little gifts and coffee, even when the child is not in care. I am really going to miss them

    What a tool. I don't envy you for having to deal with such selfishness and inconsideration. Like what? We don't need a hour to relax?? Argh!! Just tell her that that is your break time and you're job isn't to do crafts for her!!
