Default Do daycare kids seem like worse beasts than normal

A fair number of my neighbors use fulltime daycare for their kids due to dual income..... It seems like the kids are very aggressive beasts out of these daycares. They scream at their parents, tell them they hate them, always fighting and just acting jerky.

The other day one girl looked the dad right in the eyes and said in a very clear, monotone "NO" right in front of my family when he told her to leave the room if she couldn't be quite...

The parents are stupid for not correcting this shit early, but it seems like almost all of the kids who act like this go to the daycares.


We put my oldest son in daycare for one week... he was 2 years old and started swearing..... we never swore in front of him.... the day care said "o... we didn't think he could talk"....ahahah... idiots... that was the last day care experience we had.

The answer to the question is "yes"

Depends what day care. My daughter is 1 1/2 years old and she says "no" to us already and she has never been to a daycare. She doesn't sware though. Now that you say that, I'm glad I plan to wait till she is 3 or so.

"no" got me slapped. I stopped saying "no" the second or third time I spoke it. There's plenty of ways to get around the slapping part and still be just as effective of a parent. I love the super nanny show. My GF coworker said "they make it all look like the parents fault" No $hit? Hum here's the kids kicking screaming and cursing up a storm when she comes in and within a week the kids stop all that non-sense because the parents actually learned how to parent. God pick up a book or something, but for god sakes don't let your kids become brats. So basically, so long as it's a safe daycare, your well disaplined at home kids will be fine.

It's called learned behavior. They surely don't have ivy league grads running daycare's.

IMO, these days, sending your kid to a public school and/or daycare should be grounds for child abuse.

It's called you let them get away with it behaviour.

You "learn" them to pay attention, be respectfull, and polite.


This is just an excuse for bad parenting.

Good and bad kids/adults come from every walk of life. From bad neighborhoods and bad expeiences to the best neighborhoods and experiences.

Most of the good have one thing in common, a good parental figure that actually cares enough to spend time with them, show them disapline and love.

Uhhhh perhaps I misread the title to this thread but it appears that it concerns itself with DAYCARE; hence by definition SOMEONE ELSE taking care of your own kid.

There is no "letting them get away with it behavior" when they're not even in your own presence.

I went to public school, plenty of kids doing the wrong thing often. I didn't do the wrong thing, why? Because my mother taught me better. A good parent can overcome the negative influence of other children on their child. So long as the day care providers are giving resonable care. Kill them if they are giving your kid a line of coke to snort.

I think there is a huge difference in public schools vs daycares (at least in my area). All of the teachers that my kids have had so far have been great. They don't seem to take much shit from the students like the daycare workers apparently do.

My initial thoughts are to smack them all in the back of the head. My mothers technique worked wonders. I used to think she might actually break my legs if I talked during church. Kept my mouth shut.

I hated the time out crap but it does seem to work just as well if you're consistent and don't put up with the nonsense.


I also like the fact that your not showing your kids its okay to use physical force to solve situations. However there are times when I think its as important to teach them that as well as the times to use physical violence. If someone hits you punch there nose until the beg you to stop.


Goes to the point, you just have to care enough to do something about it and keep tring to find whatever works to fix it and then keep on doing it.

Oh yeah I would've smaked that kid at least once to get the point across.
