I can't take it anymore
Working is taking a huge tole on my emotional state. I go from happy to angry/stressed in a matter of minutes.
Back story: I am a full time nanny. I am also 27 weeks pregnant. I've been with these kids for a little over a year. I've had issues the whole time with them. The mom and I have very different parenting styles. She lets them get away with everything, she babies them, she does every little thing for them, they walk all over her and they have zero respect for anyone.
There's a 4,6, and 10 year old.
The 4 year old is fine, the 10 year old is very bossy and controlling. The 6 year old? I can't stand the 6 year old. He can't do anything for himself. And if I tell him I'm not going to help him put his socks on he cries. If I tell him to go upstairs and put a shirt on by himself he cries. If someone is doing something he doesn't want them to do he cries. He cries about everything. And he is very mean to other kids. Guess what. Every time he has a crying fit his mom scoops him up and cradles him like a little baby. It's to the point where I don't even want to come here anymore because of him. I can't stand the crying fits over every little thing. He argues like crazy. He's crying as I type this because his sister doesn't want to play school. I get no respect from any of the kids or the parents. 😡
Sorry I had to rant. Is there something I can do to make this a little easier for me or should I just quit? I know this stress isn't good for me or the baby.
