I'm home with a sick little girl today because one stupid ass mom sent her son to the sitter on Friday knowing full well that he had pink eye and was contagious. Told the sitter it was allergies, when we now find out shed taken him to the dr and knew what it was. He's managed to infect 3 of the other 4 kids at the sitter.

Sitter only watches this boy Mondays and Fridays or shed have probably known. So now we had to rush to the ER in the night with a 104 temp because of this mothers stupidity. How can you send your child to the sitter knowing that they will infect the other kids?

The only thing I like less then children are their parents.

Mother's stupidity or because Mom didn't want to lose her job? Not saying that was the reason but a lot of companies have low tolerance for people missing work, especially on short notice.

The 1% has to be careful with these takers they hire you know. Always looking for an excuse to take when they should be earning every penny they suck out of the corporation.

Mail her a box of tissues that you've farted into.

She doesn't work on Friday it's "her" day. I entirely understand that, but you can't send an infectious toddler to the sitter so you can get a mani peddi.

if that's the case, I'm right there with you. Some people.

Sitter confronted her yesterday, she still didn't think there was anything wrong with bringing him while contagious, even after infecting the other kids.

Day two at home, I think I've seen this tinkerbell movie 50 times.

the sitter should end her services with this parent. that kinda of error can kill her business.

What kind of a parent is so selfish as to send your sick kid to a sitter on a day you're off. Even if it's "your day." I'd want my kid to be comfortable at home resting.

Couple things:

1. I work with a guy who gets called at least once a month to come get his 'sick' baby. According to him, you have to adjust a degree or two for a baby's temp and his daughter is always just over the threshold...though not really. She never has the flu, but she gets fussy sometimes. Whenever she has a fussy day, as he calls it, they will call him to come get her because she is sick while he says she just has a high temperature perpetually. This causes him or his wife to care for their daughter at home that day and the next....it pisses him off to no end. I don't really know who is right/wrong here. Plus, it's not even comparable to the same situation as they think their daughter is healthy and stay with her when they know she is, in fact, sick.

2. I'm playing mr. mom this week and took off work to stay with the little one (it pushes off starting daycare for like a month and a half so it was worth it, plus I get to spend time with him.) Anyway, I think I posted on here once or twice yesterday compared to like 10-20 times during a regular work day. Conclusion. Being a stay at home parent is more time consuming than my real job.
