I would find a new sitter.

Fire them as your Babysitter.

O my, thats a tuffy. I think I would somewhat ignore it. I would just remind her if their is something bothering her that you are open to conversation. Im sure she probably knew after the fact that she sent the text to the WRRRROOOOONNNGGG person..oops...

I think unfortunately she messed up - and you will never look at her the same. It really depends what the text said though - I mean if it is serious and calling you names or complaining about how horrible your child is - I would say she is out. If it is saying that she hates working so long ladidaa - I think that would be tolerable. :)

THAT HAPPENED TO ME! LOL! I replied saying I assume you mean this to be sent to someone else. She kept apologizing and I was ok for about a week. Then we found someone else. Ended up not being good anyway. And the crap talking was a big sign.

After I got p*ssed and cooled off I would first read the comment and stop and think about what she was griping about, was it a ligit gripe?? Noone is innocent of talking crap about others, sadly some do it worse then others and she made a VERY big error. So after I reviewed what she wrote if I found that what she was saying was really wrong and out of line I`d confront her and fire her if I read it and if Irealized that while she was very irresponsible in sending it to me in error but was right in her gripe and I wasnt being a fair boss I`d request we chat. Not all sitters are perfect and not all bosses and parents are either. Really depends on what she said.

Wow, I disagree with the talking it out. If you sent a text talking poorly about your boss at work, you would be fired! And considering I take my daughter a lot more seriously than any job I would definitely tell her how disrespectful she was, and never allow her to watch my child again. Completely unacceptable.

haha i laughed when i read this one.. that would suck badly! All you could do is talk to her about it and hope she takes that time to be honest about her feelings.

I`d talk to her about it, that`s pretty much the only way to get to the bottom of it, or work it out (or not work it out, depending, but at least you`ll know)

Remember that drama is never good for any relationship! I would talk to her about it as calmly as possible. I would be upset too, but try to be calm. Good luck.

It just made me upset because if she had a problem with something she should have just came to me and asked or talked to me about it but instead was talking crap to someone else.

calmly talk to them about it. It could be just venting or there could really be something going on. The only way to solve the problem is to discuss 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,.....
