Hi silly question really..but i must ask...

Can we name other mindees from another family into another mindees diary?

eg: "Anna was playing happily with Jane today" or should their names stay cofidentual?


Thanks

Personally I wouldn't name another child, even thought it's quite obvious who the other child is!

I just put for example "Billy played nicely with the other child/ren today" or "Billy and another child played with the train set and shared nicely"

You can't name another child in you accident book so I treat diaries the same way.

I do yes

At the end of the day it would be silly if I did not

My parents all see and speak to each other now and they all know each others children and ask when its their birthday etc........so what am I supposed to say " oh sorry I cant let you write their name on the birthday card although you already know it "?

My children run up to mom at the end of the day and say " I have been playing with so and so and guess what so and so did "
Again what should we do ? Say they cant use their names? So it is only the same as in their diary

Nothing personal or private though which is common sense anyway and of course not in the accident book or anything

The world has gone crazy

Since I only have 2 children during the bulk of most days, it is fairly obvious who is here! Even so, I am careful about confidentiality... but I must admit it's a bit daft sometimes! :rolleyes:

I name children in my diary too. I don't think giving out first names is a problem and Ofsted didn't mention it at my inspection. :D

Hi
I use first names only - Ofsted Inspector had a really good read of diaries and didn't comment
