    RANT ALERT!

    Parent is eternally grateful, we have solved the potty training issues, solved the constipation (quote "he always 'does one' when he's been at yours as you feed him lots of veg!") We solved the bedtime issue and sleep routine with advice, chats and reward system in place. We have improved behaviour and cooperation all round. This morning parent requests can we now add washing hair to our schedule at the end of the day as he screams so much she is worried the neighbours will complain and... dont worry about doing it every day - every other day will do! SuperNanny we may be, SuperMug we are not!!

    Oh my goodness...lol

    Why don't you get the adoption started then you can do everything
    Time Out.. The perfect time for thinking about what you're going to destroy next.

    I think some people have children when they really only wanted a cat.

    Btw, this thread must be leading contender for "best thread title of 2013" so far.

    Think I would have laughed out loud and said "well no, we must leave something for you to do for your child!"

    sorry but that is hilarious - was she serious!!!!!!!!

    I had to laugh for my poor friend before xmas. parent had said child not coming on xmas eve, so she made plans to go out. Then fri before she said she needed to bring him now so. Friend not happy and said so but was told she needed some time without him to clean the house 'as I don't have a cleaner you know'! - hmmm neither did my friend.

    Anyway what happened was mum brought him from 0800 til 1000am so she could clean. Could the poor boy just not have stayed in his pjs and watched a bit of telly whilst his mum cleaned - then she and he could have had a lie in - so could my friend!
    if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got
