Worst EVER new parent meet!

[muffins]

Had some new parents visit for the 1st time this morning! My own 2 LOs couldn't have been worst behaved if they'd tried . At one point I had the parents trying to speak to me with my son having a tantrum because he wanted something out that was in a draw that was stuck shut, and my daughter wondering down the hall shouting for me with a hand full of toilet tissue and her tights round her ankles

However they want to sign tomo

I'm so stressed right now I dont whether to laugh or cry, but I do know I need a cuppa

You must have done something right Muffins

[kindredspirits]

lol i've had meetings like this - i think parents know that kids are just kids - the only ones that don't sign after seeing my own kids play up are those with little babies who are yet to experience kids really being kids! lol

[sarah707]

My ds used to be a nightmare! He's much better now I can threaten him with loss of phone credit

Well done getting the signing. They must have been impressed with your coping skills!

Well done muffins! i always 'get rid' of my 2 on 1st parent visits, its my worst nightmare that they misbehave whilst a new parent here.

Yes thats what I usually do but thought I'd be brave this time! Maybe wont do that again

[VeggieSausage]

yes my dd is usually appalling, glad not just me, I make sure she's not around now!!

[catminder]

Well done, you obviously coped well and impressed the parents

[The Juggler]

lol poor you. those are sometimes the best kind of meetings. if parents think you can cope with that then they think you can cope with anything I reckon parents who think that is weird probably wouldn't work well with you anyhow

[Tatjana]

LOL!! Sorry but that is so funny!!

Well done on getting the contract...maybe they thought their lo will fit right in lol!!

I had a parent meeting yesterday and confined my lot upstairs with hubby with instructions to make sure they didn't make it sound like they were about to come through the ceiling!

[onceinabluemoon]

Well done! They've seen things not so great and signed so think how impressed they will be when they realise they have a fab minder

[blue bear]

Well done x

[tas]

Well done! they must have been very impressed with how you coped under pressure

My own was a little horror when parents visited, I dreaded it so much that I ended up arranging evening visits so he was always in bed and asleep!

I can remember once when a parent came my son was 4 and he took an instant dislike to the little boy they brought he said he didn't like him,I said of course you do he said no I don't he's really ugly and has stupid eyes.I was so embarrassed. But do you know what they signed up and the 2 boys became really good friends they actually live 2 doors away from us now.

[Demonjill]

[muffins]

[Jelly Baby]

Lol well done!! Just think next time you have new parents round it can't get much worse!! Enjoy your cuppa x

[RedDragon]

big well done


I remember a set of parents coming to see me once and it was the day after we had bought a rescue cat - just before the parents arrived the TOM cat did something in the corner that wasn't of this earth

they didn't sign and I often see 1 of the parents (she blanks me) and I wonder if she thinks "That's the CM with the stinky house"
