...to open the door, hand the child out, and say, "Have fun!" before shutting it and locking it as quick as can be? Kid is driving me nuts today.
The absolute worst offender is my own son though. Ain't no one relieving me of THAT duty.

a parent always jokes with me to just leave them with a beer and an ipad on the curb when they get too much to handle.........to open the door, hand the child out, and say, "Have fun!" before shutting it and locking it as quick as can be? Kid is driving me nuts today.

I really sympathize with those who have their own children in the DC especially during the summer crazies. While it's great to be able to spend the summer with them it can be very trying at times. I have been doing DC for 20 years, my son is 18 and working at a center before going to college this fall and my daughter is 15 and my assistant this summer. I never thoght during those early years that it would turn out this way, but boy they are awesome kids. Hang in there, being raised in a DC can have great results....to open the door, hand the child out, and say, "Have fun!" before shutting it and locking it as quick as can be?

Haha yeh, as I've said before, being raised in a daycare makes for great birth control which is great for when they're too young but I hope I get grandkids some day.I really sympathize with those who have their own children in the DC especially during the summer crazies.

When DCPs pick up I've tried to run a 2-for-1 special with my own kids for years & no ones ever taken me up on it.

I have one single DCD that is so awesome. His son can be a real handful at times. I just open the door and give him "the look". He knows it means his child has been he!! on wheels that day.

I put my three year old (the aforementioned son) up for sale or trade on FB today. So far no one has taken me up on that offer either. Go figure...When DCPs pick up I've tried to run a 2-for-1 special with my own kids for years & no ones ever taken me up on it.

I also try to offer a 2 for 1! I don't understand why there are no takers...

I have a sign in my entry way that says "Satisfaction guaranteed or double your kids back"
Funny, but I don't get many complaints.

Funny thread!I actually have two kiddos whose dcd's pick up and they never step foot inside the door! I just open it up, hug the kiddos goodbye and say have a good evening.
Those are my two favorite pick ups.
