Yep. And now I'm making up in my head all kinds of shocking and scandalous conversations that they must be having over there in private.

Nah....
Just more personal. Kids, family, etc.... without the same amount of fear of someone cyber stalking or "outing" anyone.

Very very good point!!! Be sure to write down all the weather related information until then... That way for sure you will have something to talk about!!
preschoolteacher 05:53 PM 09-19-2013
Ha! I know. I've tried to step it up recently. I'm only half-way there in terms of posts...
AcornMama 06:15 PM 09-19-2013
Clearly shocking and scandalous means something very different to me than to all of you on the private forum.
Maybe that's because I'm new at this job. Once I'm a seasoned and experienced childcare provider, maybe I'll be shocked by different things.
Like the weather.

I'm way behind most of you! I read at least three times a week but, as a newbie to daycare in general (been teaching just over a year) sometimes I feel more comfortable reading than posting. I've learned a LOT though! I'm just now getting to the point where I feel a little more comfortable getting my feet wet.
Maria2013 04:27 AM 09-20-2013
I could post a lot more but usually by the time I get to a thread, all that I would have said has been said enough already
Laurel 04:30 AM 09-20-2013
I just got in. You have to have 600 posts and be here 6 months. My posts were up to 600 a month or so early. I just had to wait a month. I knew I was gabby but......
It isn't much different than here but now I feel I can, if I wanted to, give more specific details say about a day care family. It seems like if you put it here then they could happen upon it and figure out it was them you are talking about. That kind of thing.

Me too! and my spelling and grammar are atrocious so I hesitate to post because I don't want to get called out by the grammar police.
jessrlee 08:17 AM 09-20-2013
My goal is to make it by Christmas!! I love to read, I just usually don't have anything constructive to add.
daycaremum 08:27 AM 09-20-2013
Yikes, just looked at my stats!! I've been a member for a year and have only made 60 posts!!! Feels like a lot more
But I agree with the other member that said by the time I get to post, my points have already been made and I don't feel like typing the same thing, that would be pretty boring for everyone to read. 600 posts is quite a lot. I wonder how "they" decided on this number??
jessrlee 08:56 AM 09-20-2013
I thought it was 500!!
I think it's 500 posts and 6 months.
Clara 11:10 AM 09-20-2013
Semi sounds good to me.... I would like a private area for owners only that general public can't view.
My family knows I take a lot of the knowledge learned here to heart. So they MAY check it out so venting about them is a no, no.....
Jack Sprat 11:14 AM 09-20-2013
I was telling DH last night that I am on here almost every nap time. How is that I do not have 600 posts yet? Lol! Oh well, looking forward to the day when I get there!
