Starfish - yeah , Anetka knows no english - but she understands a lot of polish , so before we go in I tell her over and over again that theres lots of kids to play with and toys - and that im only going to the shops and ill be back soon - im sure the fact that she doesnt understand a word the carers are saying doesnt help the situation
Thats another thing , the earlier she picks up english the better , i was 5yrs old when we came to Oz and i remember how much i was teased because i couldnt speak "properly"

Kim - I think on Tuesday i might go in with her , and watch her reaction. If she is as desperate to get out as she was on Thursday , ill leave with her , but if she is just cranky .. i might try going for a short while

I think the issue is the daycare centre itself too. They keep forgetting that im sitting there , and that im a mother too - they arent exactly overjoyed to be spending time with all the kids , in fact i dont think they couldnt care less.
A little 9mth old was crying so so much when i was there.. and they just kept saying his new , he'll get used to it. It wasnt even my child but i was feeling his pain , they left him in a highchair crying on his own

The first day Anetka had a bit of a cry herself ( so they tell me ).. when we came to pick her up , she was standing above one of the carers with tears on her face , and they werent paying much attention. ..until they saw me come in ofcourse

So i think im also concerned about the way they will deal with her crying. I wouldnt want her to think no one cares

ahhh i dunno.
