Yep, so many dumb white people reposting this with sentiments along the lines of “LOL SEE STUPID HOOLIGANS JUST NEED AN ASS WHOOPIN’ AND THEY’LL KNOW THEIR PLACE, “ when in reality this woman was just terrified that her son was to be killed. Missing the point so hard.

“And if I find out that you aren’t as pretty without it, I’ll act like it’s a betrayal or a lie.”

Relevant story: I was out of town for a week and at one point when I talked to my husband back home, he mentioned that he had gotten violently ill the night before. I was sympathetic.

I only enter my food when I’ve had a good day. On a bad day I just act like I forgot to track them.

I’m very much on team “fire this lady” but if it matters, if someone like you were on social media saying “sometimes my job sucks, this one kid gets under my skin, this one parent is so demanding,” etc I’d totally give you a pass. You’re speaking about particular challenges, we all have them, and we should be able to

I had a middle school (male) teacher tell or class that “when girls come to school with their bra straps showing, it’s like me coming to school in my underwear.” Exact quote.

Apparently “doesn’t hate kids” is extremely high standards for childcare. Yeesh.

She did not say “I don’t love caring for kids.” She said, twice, that she hated working for kids. And that was before she even started. I don’t think she’s terrible, but she absolutely should not have been kept in employment at that daycare.

I hate multiple kids and the idea of working in a daycare is my idea of hell, and I have one toddler and one on the way. I’d also never ever be a SAHM (no disrespect, to me it’s 10000x harder than an office job) and would never in a million years work at a daycare. I don’t thinks she’s a bad person or a bad mother,

Dude, I don’t even care if you’re warehousing my kid as long as you’re keeping him/her safe and fed and are kind to them. But a negative attitude like this right off the bat? Kids will pick up on a teacher/caregiver who dislikes them

lol k. If your nanny/dog walker/doctor said that they hated kids/dogs/patients I’m sure you’d totally still choose them to provide you a service cause you’re just so cool like that.

Yep. It’s one thing if a bagger at a grocery store said “OMG this job is so boring can’t wait to get out of here.” This woman is caring for children.

Oh please. If they were sharing it to talk about how horrible a mother she was, I’d 100% be of the MYOB brigade. But people are paying a lot of money for her to care for their children, which she has said (before even starting the job) that she hates doing. NO.

She didn’t say “sometimes kids try my nerves.” She said, before even starting “I hate working at a daycare” and “I hate being around kids.” Completely different.

This, too. If she complained about, say, one interaction at her job (“I had a parent today who didn’t understand why her kid wasn’t getting super special treatment”) I’d sympathize with her. But she said she hates being around kids. The core of her job is caring for several kids. I’d have fired her too.

Yeah, same here. If she complained about, say, the management or something I would be more inclined to cut her some slack. But she straight-up said she hates being around kids. I wouldn’t want her watching my child.

Actually, not sure irony is the right word. What’s the word they use for like, politicians who rant against homosexuality and try to pass laws, and then turn out to be gay? Or go on about corruption while taking bribes?

Ha, a couple days ago I went on a bike ride with my husband and son, and then we all went to dinner. As I’m digging into the nachos we ordered, my son was talking about the frog I had caught and showed him.

The Sanctimommy is terrible. I hate that shit.

Yep, this is why I’m sympathetic to mom over-posts. Being a SAHM and a new mom is so. isolating. Chances are you spend most of your time only around kids and (maybe) other moms. Most of the “photos every single day” moms on my feed are SAHMs and whenever I get annoyed I remember how trapped I felt when I was home with
