I can`t remember, but didn`t you just have a poll about your daughter crying when getting dropped off at the day care? If so, PULL HER OUT OF THERE!! The provider is suppose to keep a log of incidents and report to you if something happens. Some daycares go as far as to call you immediatly if something happens. There is no way I would leave my child there another day!

Also, when you could identify all of the bruises your child received in your care, was she younger and less mobile?

My son goes to my moms, so I know I am lucky, and can afford to be laid back and really trust the care he is getting there. But he does get bruised up legs from things like crawling over blocks, crawling on metal playground equipment, cruising furniture and slipping, playing around cousins that are the same age and might whack him with a toy, crawling under the coffee table and then trying to stand up and knocking his head....He even had 2 bruises on his forhead for one of his well check ups and the doctor said, `Oh, I cn see he is pulling up to furniture now!` It is common for babies to have little bumps and bruises as they learn to explore their world. My mom does tell me if my son has a decent fall/accident. BUT, if you feel uncomfortable with the care provider, you might want to look around for another. Maybe you would feel more comfortable if your child was in a situation with multiple care providers.

All the places I have been to hand you a accident report even if it is for a scrape. People are sue happy now adays and its best so they cannot be held responsible other things that it may lead up to.

I and the program director for a preschool program for 2yr olds and it is expected that we tell the parents of anything that has happened whether it leaves a bruise etc or not.

Really depends ~ if your LO is a toddler they can bump into many things. Sometimes it isnt seen or the bruise doesnt show up til hours later. Ask them if they recall how your LO got the bruised, bump and see how they respond. Sadly its a part of toddlerhood. I loose count of the ones my kids get just from playing ~ If your baby is not even crawling yet I`d be concerned for sure ~

It would depend on where the bruises were and how often it happens. Also on how the daycare providers react when asked about it.

This just happened to my son I noticed he had a small bruise near his eye. He told me another child pushed him over. The preschool didnt tell me but when I asked it was because they didnt know. But they would keep a closer eye on him. If they had seen it I would have expected them to tell me about it.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
