  • And I have said that I agree that DH should have handled it better. I told him not to swear in front of Bug. He apologized to her later, after I scolded him. She said it's ok. She didn't apologize to him for yelling at Bug.

  • I may be late to this game, but I don't care if my husband gave my son the whole bag of donuts, it's his child, and the sitter has no right to interfere.

  • If I was sitting for a kid and the parent gave the kid a whole bag of doughnuts to eat and then left, that would be the last time I sat for that family because ain't nobody got time to deal with a kid on that kind of sugar rush by themselves.

  • I don't understand. Her insurance (she IS insured, right?) should cover the car seat. Until then she uses the spare. Not sure why she's arguing her seat is fine when she can get a new one without cost.

    Your H meant serious business with that donu

  • Yes, she is insured.

    DH did not give him a whole bag of donuts. He gave him ONE, that was cut in half. It was one of those little Donette things.

  • I'm starting to think OP has the concussion. 
  • Yes, I did ask her if she was ok, last night. I even asked if she wanted the day off. She insisted she was fine.

    Again, this is not the first time we have had issues with her.

  • Yeah the swearing was uncalled for, but I think the OP was put in a tough spot because her sitter wouldn't listen to her when she said she didn't want her driving her child around in that car and especially in that car seat.  She simply had to say so
