i am so glad i found GCM before my dd got old enough to "discipline".

i'm so glad you didn't do that!!! i used to work in daycare, and some workers were wonderful and some were... but they were all . pretty much all the time.

the ones were enough to convince me that when i have kids, they will be at home with me if we all have to live in a box to make that work

anyway, it makes me and and that people suggested that to you. to pinch them under their arms and such! besides all the things we know about GBD and how that pain would have affected those little ones - if you ever got caught, you would have been in a mess of trouble!

so glad you chose not to do that!
