Help answer this question below.
Well....I can really relate to this.I personally run a daycare in my home and in reality it drives my family crazy!! I would'nt know where to begin. I have older school age children myself so my own kids are in school all day.My husband is disabled from an accident. so he's now home all the time. He can NEVER sleep in.he gets woke up when the first child comes (6:00am) all morning kids getting dropped off. lots of noise,even parents talking very loudly!its pretty bad when your own kids can't sleep in on non school days.my house has gotten ALOT of wear and tear. We need our carpet replaced.doors fixed,dents in the walls,outside toys broke from the older kids. the list goes on.It's easier when there is about maybe 4 total but some days I have 8 and that s to much.Luckily Im losing a couple soon. and I'm not replacing them.I've decided to go back to school and start a new career.and I will be quitting daycare next May not going through a another summer.my family is tired of the noise,fighting,crying,whinning,back talk,kids getting picked up late(even after closing time)etc...don't get me wrong, the kids are great but they all have their moments.to much work!! I miss the 8 hour work day Good Luck!!!
My mom had a daycare in our house when I was growing up. I would take it as an opportunity to learn. Help her out with the kiddies, babysit her clients when she's not working, and then later you can use it on a resume for a good job in childcare if you want that or if you can't find anything else it will work as a good fallback for you. Take your lemons and make lemonade :) If you let yourself, you can learn to love the kids. Good luck!
I read this as if your your Mum is a student attending the daycare center. Is this correct? Not sure I understood your question either.
I don't really understand what you are asking....Does your mom have a daycare in her home, and the children are making you go nuts???
I also run daycare in my home and have 2 teenagers and a 2 yr old. I think it makes me more crazy than them. THey can go in their rooms and just close the door, plus they are typically only home in the afternoon when everyone is quiet and well rested from nap time. I would love to quit today, but this is why I have not yet and maybe your mothers reasons are similar or totally different for not quitting.
1. The money, & I don't have another job yet, can be scary to think of losing $500 a week or more depending on how many kids she keeps.
2. I made a commitment to the parents who are going to be let down because of me.
3. What's going to happen to the children? Will the parents put them in some other care that is abusive because they are in a bind and don't have care. What will happen to them. While they drive me nuts, I still care about their well being and safety like they were my own children.
4. To replace her earnings she may have to get another job working for someone else and that means less flexibility to be there for you and your family. As well as a loss of her own autonomy(sense of being in control of her life).
There are many other things she could do to earn money on her own at home, but again, it can be scary to change things that effect your wallet, especially when you have others to take care of.
Is there a state law that schools cannot hold a child back without a parent's permission?

Are there ever times when you feel like your parents treat people who aren't even in your family better than they treat you?

Do you ever feel like you have to walk on eggshells around one or both of your parents? If so, why?
