Batya33 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 My sense is this was coming from her conflict with her husband. Her demands and preferences sounded far more like someone hiring a nanny where, sure, you pay more and get to be more particular plus the many still comes when your child is sick as needed. But that’s a different cost and level of childcare. (Nanny not many). I don’t think it matters how long your husband will be there if he will have the opportunity to interact with children. For example at my sons school you have to go through absckgroidn cjeck and training to volunteer but if you’re just coming to have lunch with your child you’re a “visitor” and can’t interact with other kids.

My husband has a police check and works with kids as his part time work and actually WITH her elder daughter. I think her husband has issues with men around his daughters. Either way I don’t support the idea that all men are perverts when it comes to little kids . You know? That is the feeling I got about her explaining her husband. Either way I don’t need that BS and headache. Link to comment

My husband actually feels uncomfortable entering a fenced in playground alone to come meet me and my son because he gets looks from people as to why he’s there. And he happens to be very clean cut Link to comment

It is like saying that women can’t be high school teachers in science because they are women and stupid. Little kids need men too. 1 Link to comment

I think there’s an assumption that a man entering a playground alone is there for inappropriate reasons. I agree it’s an unfair assumption Link to comment

Batya33 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 It is sexists too though. Not all people who abuse kids are male. Of course. I agree. But my husband would rather not feel awkward walking into a playground alone. He will with my son of course. Hope your interviews go well! Link to comment

itsallgrand Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 How sweet is it to simply pass on the wastes of time instead of having to go through all the hoops of a management that won't take any action?! Congrats on your first client !! Link to comment
