Shaking my head
Well I know that some people are just plain out wrong in what they do with their kids period now. The kids that I take care of want a schedule around the household and I give it to them at this point in time. And they want someone to put their foot down while they are at it also in the household. I try to do both with the children in the household period and they like it when I do. Now I have to make the one boy understand in why his baby sister crys so much in the household and why I put her down for a nap at least twice a day when I am around. I know the reason why the baby has total melt downs during the day and the boy has not got that part yet. He swears that he can not stand it when the baby cries and I know why also. Since all of the kids have got their way for the most part before I started taking care of them all and I pretty much put a stop to it all around their household. I told the boys straight out that I did not like little heathens at all and that is how they were acting at the time along with the girls. They still do at times and it is getting better around the place while I am there. Now with school started around with the one household it works for the best. I give the boys about a half hour to unwind from school and say ok lets get cracking to the homework to get it done and over with so you can go outside and goof around. They all have agreed to it and got their homework done. Last week was kind of funny when their mom walked in and said ok lets do the homework now boys and 4 of us said it is already done mom. Ok so I try to get the kids to think smart about things that are going on in the household. Also I went over the homework with one of the boys and said to him think of it as money with the math that he done. Then it all clicked with the child and said now it is easier in how I explained it than what his teacher did to them all. Sometimes you have to do that with the work that they all do also. With the woman that I work for she was shocked in that the homework was done and snacks were dealt with at that point in time unlike the last person that she had. So now at this point in time yes in a way I am hard on the kids and they know it and do not mind one bit. I know that the 5 babies like it when I am there since I explain things to them all and give them enough info to go on for their age. So with that said the middle boy was worried about the baby and her legs over the summer and I told him this could be it, this could be it, also this could be it, then there could be nothing wrong with her at all also while we are at it all. Well it is weak muscles in her leggs and she needed to walk and run more period and not be picked up all of the time. So now since I am there 2 days pluss a week at their house and can not pick up the girls all of the time I tell them to wait a minute and will take them by the hand and make them walk with me to sit down to pick them up and ask what is wrong. Alot of the times I get a shrug from the almost 3 year old and I tell her that is not an answer at all in my book since she can talk up a blue streak anyway with me. I figure the girl has a voice and she better start using it since her brothers will talk for her when you let them. Alot of the times I tell the boys to go away and let the girl talk since she can and tough cookies on it all. Also I will tell the boys if I wanted their opinion on something I would have gave it to them myself at the time. So it all works out and alot of the time the kids do not know in how to take me niether while we are at it all. Knowing what I can and can't do I may just apply something to tell the one boy it is not ok to try to correct me at all in the household and do not argue with me at all. So with that said it may work after 3 times of telling the one ok ya wanna tell me how it is done then you can lay down also without lip on how to do things around the household. This is what both parents have took out of the household at this point and let the kids run them instead of the other way around. At this point I do not care in what the kids tell their father at all and knowing that word gets around quick about my attatude to some people the father does not want to deal with me at all on things since I will get him with both barrles of the shot gun and blow gasgets at the same time. At this time the parents and grandparents know that I will keep in the city and town with the kids if and when I take them out period and the truck has a non smoking sign in it with the kids by law also. I have this thing of this is how it is and tough with alot of it around here along with I ain't going to jail for nobody also. So after I really met the kids father for the first time I knew he was a snake in the grass totally. So now at this point even the father knows not to push me totally because I will put the smack down on him without thinking about it all. At this point in time the kids know that I refuse to deal with the attitude from their fathers household and have told them so around their mothers house they treat me with the up most recpect out of the place. As I told on child yesterday you know better than not to wear sleeves at school and go change your shirt and I don't care. He did what he was told and I praised him for it also. That is what he is looking for and he got it from me. Since I knew what the father was doing bringing them 10 minutes before school started I got a fix for the father totally around both places. I told the kids mother let me handle this one and I have it down to push his buttons totally without getting into trouble at all with the law. Ok so I think way to much and have a huge use to feel usefull around a household now with nap time.
