In Reply to: yes her husband is in the military. - the other pictures speak for themselves as well.
I just looked at her myspace and read her profile. She actually mentions the daycare and her kids and how great they are, which tells me she really likes what she does. I think she is young and doesn't understand the ramifications of her actions. If I were you, I would ask myself these questions - What was my opinion about her before I saw that? - and - If I were a 21-year-old daycare teacher, would I want a mother to warn me about what I'm putting out there or tell my boss and get me fired? - Honestly, I feel bad for her because I think she doesn't understand. Her whole world will change when she herself is a mother! Maybe she had a crappy role model. I hope it goes well!

daycare
For the record - if I had seen that it would bother me too! However, as I stated before, I would confront her and tell her how that made you feel. Remind her of VA Tech and unfortunately these days we just don't know.
Would it matter that she is almost 10 y/o and not in a daycare? sm
We were at soccer practice Monday night for her and last night for her sisters. Sisters are 12 and 6. they do not have them.
My daughter isn't in daycare either and...
just got over hands, feet and mouth disease last week. I actually posted about this a week or two ago when she first got sick. We just moved to a new state and she hasn't been playing with any kids, so we're not sure where she got it, but she definitely had it. Her sores started on the soles of her feet, then moved to the palms of her hands and then she had some awful sores in her mouth. The mouth ones were definitely the worst part of it! We had a really hard time getting her to eat anything for about 4 days and ended up making Slim-Fast smoothies with chocolate SF, ice, and banana Danimals yogurt. Hopefully, your daugther won't get the mouth sores, as not everyone does. Her doctor said there was nothing we/he could do but help make her comfortable and just make sure she gets plenty of rest. A couple of people on this board suggested Mylanta/Maalox swishes for the mouth sores and that worked great, if she ends up getting those. We didn't do anyting for the feet and hands, just had to wait about a week for her to get better. Good luck!

Ask her about it. See how she reacts. Maybe she is in the military. Maybe she doesn't know its posted. You just never know. Ask her.
Daycare or not, ANYONE posing with a gun on the web

Daycare fund raiser
are you serious? Daycare rates are outrageous (not saying it's not well worth it -- I sure wouldn't want to care for someone else's children all day for the money the worker's tend to make . . . jes sayin). I cannot believe they are actually fund raising in the daycare centers these days. I'm hoping it's for a very worthwhile cause, and not for funds needed by the daycare center.
Opinions please on comment from daycare director
I am alarmed by something. When I took my 3–year-old to the daycare this morning, the director stopped me and said my 3 –year-old has had many meltdowns lately. She has had crying spells at the drop of a hat and asked if I had noticed anything. I said no but both my kids act like it is the end of the world when they get told no and lately they get told no a lot because well, we are broke. Their needs are getting met though. Actually, this financial thing has taken a toll on us since I left my job at the hospital a year ago. Bad move but we all make mistakes. For the last 7 years I have taken both my kids to this daycare and this is the 1st time she has complained about their behavior. Immediately after this conversation, the director asked about my cousin. She said that she heard my cousin cannot be left alone. I told her I haven't talked to cousin in a long time so I don't know what is going on. My cousin has psych problems and has been in and out of psych wards since she was a teen so this didn't really surprise me. When I got home I called my H and asked him if he noticed DD crying more. He said not really but he said he will stop by the daycare to see what it is all about. Then I called my cousin. I told her I hadn't heard from her in a while and was wondering if she was okay. She said no that she had been back in the psych ward and CPS has been called on her. She claims someone had overheard her say she was going to kill her 3-year-old child. She claims that they are not letting her be alone with her child. Her H has to be there with her and whoever watches with child has to have a thorough background check. What really bothers me is the sequence of the conversation. The director told me about my child then told me about cousin. Is she accusing me of something?
Sounds like the daycare worker is telling you what you should notice
This is not being a busybody but a change and she is asking if something might be changed in the home. I think she is entirely in her right and should ask questions and you should not be paranoid in thinking she is asking about you. This is a crying child who is acting out of the ordinary and you ought to thank her and find out why the 3 is crying so much.
