TEACHERS are NOT Coparents
Work requires 100% of your attention so are the kids so how can this even possible?
They get $600 a week to take care of there kids!
when she says “my daughter will have to stay inside monday though friday” 🙄 entitlement galore

“Can’t give 100%”
Tell that to my boss…… who expects 100% from me, or get I get written up for underperforming.
This report is unrealistic.
A Pandemic? (which is an incident to a whole people), if it is in 'dis-ease' proportion, is quite literally impossible, for the people in Christ to bear, He has already done that. Thank you Praise you Lord!
Let's talk about parents that have to leave home to work. Most of all single parents working low-income jobs. Full-time sitter cost as much as we make, and no one wants to help with the virus. What are we to do when we return to work?
Be a less than perfect parent and stop relying on other people to raise your children. Yes, working parents need childcare, but when needed, parenting should come first!
I was a nanny for a full decade with the same family. I also have a masters degree in school counseling. I was injured back in 2013 and it all came to a screeching halt. I wonder if I should try to help a special family now that the need seems so great? Would anyone want a semi-handicapped (I look fine but can’t really sit very long or walk very far) overeducated woman with experience, and a huge heart? Also, I’ve been entirely isolated and there is minimal risk of virus exposure (from me). I don’t even know if I’m up to the challenge, but I might be willing to take it on if the need was there.
Children are a blessing to have but for me I'm glad that I don't have children especially at a time like this.
I love the honesty of this interview. It's real facts. It's not that parents don't want to be with their children.. but many of us are forced to work from home. If we work at home and have no camps or daycare.. how on earth can they get the exercise, fun with friends and social and physical activities much needed in youth
I know it is temporary but it makes me glad I don't have children right now.
I feel sorry for the parents of 7 years old and under children. 😪 they must get frustrated with their hands full. Mine are 16 14 and 12 1/2. 🤠
Be happy you are employed
Who told her to have kids? Stop complaining
Great content😊👍
I looking for work. Lol
Im so frustrated with this, so much infact that im not being carful at all anymore. I really dont care if I get covid , I really dont . Im still respecting social distancing , but my mind just cant take this.I have severe depression since a couple years now and this is makng it much worse. I really hope theres and end this one day.
Ha ha!
Poor women who have kids to raise and cant work due to this pandemic. I really wish this end as soon as possible.
While I understand these parents frustration, there are other parents that wish to have the luxury of working from home and make an honest living rather than being sitting at home and not knowing how they’re going to pay for rent/mortgage and how they’re going to feed their children. I would say count your blessings and be grateful for what you have. There are other people who are truly suffering way more than you.
This is a crock os shtt
Same day stupid, what u doin off u back’
“That breaks my heart knowing that summer camp was cancelled and my daughter is going to have to sit at home 5 days a week during that time period”
So you will rather send your daughter to camp and take the chance of not seeing her ever again. Got it! 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
if you have children obviously they're your children; take care of them,
im very sympathetic to anyone struggling financially during covid
Please i need money im unemployed
Wow
