Was a medical emergency the other kids were very upset and his little sibling was crying . I credit my presence of mind to my medical training in the military so I am very cool and in charge in the moment. My son had a panic attack after everyone left , but we are all good now . And best of all the child will be ok. 2 Link to comment

Seraphim Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 Dear Families, It is with great sadness that I’m telling you we are posted out and leaving at the end of March. It is the last and final for us as ….got his letter from the pension board stating he can retire on his birthday this year if he chooses. Our last day open will be Friday 22 March 2024. It has been a great opportunity to meet and work with all of you. Thank - you for entrusting me with the care of your awesome children. Wishing all of you the best , And so 5.5 years comes to a close. I did it , I survived beyond the first year or 5 years when most small businesses fail. My business survived Covid and the Prime Minister’s nonsense programmes. It was a success and met great people along the way. I will keep this journal going with future work endeavours. 1 Link to comment

Seraphim Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 So tomorrow is the last day of my business. 😩It is so hard to let go of something I built. It is hard for my son as well. He has worked for me for 4 years. He has been a fabulous and responsible and reliable employee. I am proud of myself. My business survived over 5 years when so so many fail. It survived Covid when we had shut downs, it survived unfavourable government policies. I did so well. I have put into motion the things I need for my new job. Police and vulnerable sector check being done . Link to comment

Seraphim Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 I thought it would be a good last day because our own group discipline issue kid was in a great mood. Nope. The two seconds my eyes aren’t on him because I was taking a drink of my tea he strikes. He is pulling on his brother’s ears until he is SCREAMING. When I asked why he did it he says , well he wasn’t doing what I wanted. I said he doesn’t have to do what you want. Stop trying to control everyone and keep your hands to yourself . Do not touch the other kids. Period. You are NOT the boss and have no right to manhandle people . This little guy ( 7) has very poor social skills and extremely hands on and on purpose tries to annoy others and says mean horrible things but is over the top dramatic if other kids fight back or say something back to him. It is the end of the Universe. His little brother (4) is the sweetest loving little guy. 1 Link to comment
