A mom asked me to not give her 4 year child water or other liquids during the school day because the child was getting up at night to use the restroom. I told her I was not going restrict a child’s access to water.

For the solar eclipse, wanted us to shade all the windows and doors for the “solar radiation that escapes during the event”. God save the children.

Five day summer camp. Parent has ticked all of “My child is allergic to: Nuts, eggs, wheat, gluten, lactose, shellfish, soy, fish.” We called her to ask what her child normally eats and home and she replied “oh, we don’t know if he’s allergic to any of those and he doesn’t have a modified diet at home, but we thought it was better not to risk it while he was away!”Kid ate everything. Didn’t complain or die a single time.

Devout vegan family that would not allow me to use/eat animal products because “we don’t want our children indoctrinated by meat eaters who think it’s okay to slaughter and eat innocent animals”.I baby sat for a while. But the kids were pretentious little fucks. I quit by stashing some bacon in my bag and eating it as the parents walked in. I let them fire me.After that, the agency I was with dropped them and stopped providing them with sitters.

My friend was a camp counselor. One dad told her to make sure that his son didn’t have too much fun. Seriously.She didn’t comply and let the kid enjoy his summer.
