I am not a "type-A" mom. I totally sent JackMN to preschool smelling like poop.

He got into his diaper RIGHT before the special-ed van came to pick him up, and I cleaned him, washed him off, and put lotion on him as fast as I could, but I didn't have time to give him a full bath.

If there was a "stinky kid" at school today, it was mine. I think I'm going to start duct-taping around the top of his diaper.

:crazy:

1. I've been there.

I just remind myself that they've probably seen/heard/smelled everything.

2. Brava! The world needs fewer type-A moms

We'd all be better off if we lightened up. I've sent my kids to school with orange juice dribbles on their shirts. Why fret the small shit (pun intended :evilgrin:

3. you can only do your best

you would think the teachers would have a better handle on what special needs and other kids get into between the house and the school!

There have been times when I have lectured a few teachers in my work life, and in my real life, about what it is really like to have kids. Some of those without, have no idea....

4. If they're teachers of small children,

I'm sure they've experienced much, much worse. :hi:
