So, one of my dcm's has been on maternity leave for the last few months....I have her other child here (15 month old) and except for the first week of the leave the child has been here every day all day of the entire leave. Ok...whatever floats your boat. They are paying so not a big deal to me either way. However, recently she posts on Facebook how she has really enjoyed spending her time off with her kids and that she will miss being home with them. Really? Because I've had the toddler every week for about 9 &1/2 hours a day...they haven't even picked up early this entire time. I'm so sad for the child because of the time she missed put on at home but what frustrated me was the post itself. I know it's probably for show but she implied that she has been home spending all this quality time with the kids! I don't think so! No more time than she would if she were working...at least for the toddler anyway. The baby of course has been home with her.
Just had to vent. Kinda made me gag when I read it lol.

IF I were on her Facebook page, I would upload pictures of her child at daycare and make a comment about how much fun he has been having at daycare everyday while she has been off.....Logged out on purpose...

I'm not friends with any of my daycare parents on FB because if I was, I would post a snarky remark for sure.
"So glad you are having a great maternity leave! Keep me up dated on plans to enroll Baby. Toddler is going to love seeing his/her Baby sibling at daycare every day! I am sure Toddler misses Baby when he/she is at daycare with me."

Facebook is evil - don't look at it!
I'm sure she's not kidding anyone.

I don't have any of my daycare parents as a friend on facebook. I had a friend that had a couple o her daycare parents on facebook, and it turned out to be very bad for both of them!! One family would always take days off and say how wonderful it was to be home alone without any children. Until one day, she sent them sick to her home, while the Mom was sitting at home!! She immediately called the Mom and said since you are at home, I can't believe you sent both sick children to my house. The other one was watching what she was doing on her weekends, and always commented negativity to each post, and she wasn't doing anything wrong, it shouldn't be anyone's business what you do on your evenings off and weekends off!!! BAD THING!!!yeah, I can totally see how being friends with parents on FB could be a very bad thing!!
