<v Speaker 2>And we have the lovely Amy has phoned in today.

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 2>Hey Amy, A Hi, Hey, what is the problem O?

0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:40.120
<v Speaker 3>So, guys, I have this problem. I don't have a

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:43.040
<v Speaker 3>problem with my mother in law, but I have a

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 3>problem with the state of her house. So in a nutshell,

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 3>she has got three dogs and one cat and they've

0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:56.840
<v Speaker 3>got no toilet training sense whatsoever. Every time I go around,

0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 3>there's a pooh on the floor, there's we on the law.

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 3>And I have a one year old who will be

0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 3>spending a day a week with her, and I just

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:08.040
<v Speaker 3>can't trust that he's not going to put the pooh

0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 3>in his mouth.

0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 4>It's a good way to build some immunity.

0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, no, this is what she tells me.

0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Not true. Because you can actually get really sick. Cats

0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 2>particularly the cats can make children very very sick. I

0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.640
<v Speaker 2>think it can actually kill them. I'm not just saying

0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:26.480
<v Speaker 2>there's diseases you can pick.

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:28.959
<v Speaker 3>It's gastro waiting to happen, is it not.

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, obviously it's to help with babysitting, so

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:34.080
<v Speaker 4>you're not having to pay his pay your day care fees.

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 4>Is there not a way that she could come to

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.399
<v Speaker 4>your house and do the babysitting at your house?

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 3>So no, because she runs a business from home.

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Which is the other issue I have with it.

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 4>Also, last week I went there, there was raw chicken

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 4>breast on the bench.

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 3>The dogs were eating it.

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 4>Do you know what though, I mean, it's a hard

0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 4>one because you're getting something out of your mother in law,

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 4>which is that she's she's going to be helping you

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 4>to take care of the kids, which saves you having

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 4>another day of daycare, which is obviously so expensive. So true,

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:10.359
<v Speaker 4>it's so expensive. So I guess like there's a big

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:14.040
<v Speaker 4>decision for you to make. Either you're comfortable with your

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 4>is it a little boy or a little girl? My

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:19.120
<v Speaker 4>boy with your boy being there, or you have to

0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 4>pay that extra money and have them in daycare because

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 4>I also worry if your mother in law's living like this,

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.959
<v Speaker 4>if she's got rubbish everywhere, if she's letting the animals like,

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 4>you know, pool on the floor and she's not able

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.519
<v Speaker 4>to clean it up, or whatever it is. I always

0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 4>ask the question, like, is that person's mental health okay?

0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.399
<v Speaker 4>Because it's a real sign of someone who's not coping

0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 4>when they're living in a state that's not clean or

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.360
<v Speaker 4>hygienic or good for them. And that could also be

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.400
<v Speaker 4>something that is an issue that no one's considered. She

0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 4>may not be okay.

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Some people are just lazy as well.

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 2>Though some people are just dirty and like and of

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.480
<v Speaker 2>course there could be more problems there, but some people

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>are just dirty and lazy. I think for me, if

0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>I could find the money, I would be trying to

0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.120
<v Speaker 2>find the money in and put my kid in the

0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:02.200
<v Speaker 2>daycare rather than in that environment. Also, if you can't

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 2>clean up after your animal, I wouldn't trust these animals

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.320
<v Speaker 2>to be around my one year old animals. You don't

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 2>know the way they behave. It could be you could

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>have had your family pet forever, but you would never

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 2>leave it unattended in a room with an animal and

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 2>a baby.

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 4>So have you ever had the conversation with her, like,

0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 4>have you ever spoken to her about it and explained

0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 4>your worries or pointed out the things.

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 3>And I have mentioned my anxiety about putting him on

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.359
<v Speaker 3>the floor because literally every time I walk in, I'm like, oh,

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:29.240
<v Speaker 3>there's a dog who.

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:31.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's that's too hard.

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 3>But she sort of just goes oh like an acts

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 3>as if you know, she's not aware of it, but

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 3>it's every time, And just how do you not know

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 3>that there's who on the floor inside your house?

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I'd say you need to sit her down and make

0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:46.880
<v Speaker 1>sure everything's good with her, because I think I'm with

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 1>you laws if you're living like that, you know, have

0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>the chat, make sure she's okay. Maybe she's waiting, yeah,

0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe you know, you just need to extend the olive

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 1>branch and the poops can.

0:03:56.160 --> 0:04:01.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, they we'll keep us updated there.

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:03.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. And it's a tricky one. And if you can't

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 4>come to some sort of resolution, I think it's you

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:07.680
<v Speaker 4>have to put them into daycare or look at getting

0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 4>a babysitter or something. We'll see if you can work

0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:13.280
<v Speaker 4>from home on those days. But yeah, it may be

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 4>if she can't take care of herself and her animals

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 4>at the moment in her house. It may be too

0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 4>much of a burden for her to be able to

0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:20.560
<v Speaker 4>take care of your child as well.

0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:21.719
<v Speaker 2>It's an easy one day care for me.

0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 3>There's a tough conversation to be had.

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, absolutely, Amy, that's not how it all goes.

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, no worries. If you want some advice like that,
