WEBVTT - Daycare Terrors 0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.240 Oh, it's quite a pleasant little blow. 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:06.920 That's what. 0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:26.160 Welcome back to two doting dads. I am Maddie Jay 0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:30.160 and this is a podcast that is all about parenting. 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.440 It's the good, the badable, and. 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.320 We have to always say at the start of every 0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.920 episode that there will be absolutely no advice given whatsoever. 0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:43.280 So if you hear something and you go that's incorrect. No, 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:45.240 you don't do it that way. That's fine. 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:46.199 You heard correctly. 0:00:47.920 --> 0:00:53.080 We're not giving advice that she keeps happy great as frazzled. 0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:57.640 Frazzled at the moment. I had a bit of an 0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:58.880 emotional drop off this morning. 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:00.680 Emotional. I hope you're okay. 0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:02.720 Yeah, everyone was not good. 0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:04.000 No one was good. 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:08.520 Everybody was a little bit emotional. No, the teachers were fine. 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:12.959 It was more so like, oh Godlala and Mali. 0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:17.760 Now, I have a tricky daycare in that there is 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:21.800 only one spot that you can park. What is It's 0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:24.960 on a main road opposite the daycare. There's a high 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:29.880 school right in the mornings, it's fucking it's peak. It's 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.200 peak hour. You got people going to work, you got 0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:34.600 people dropping off the kids at the high school. You've 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:37.280 got parents dropping off the kids. The daycare, and there's 0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:40.280 only one car park available. It's like a ten to 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:43.040 fifteen minute like quick car park at the very front 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:43.760 of our daycare. 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:44.880 So where does everyone else go? 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:47.480 I don't know, dude, I don't know how they do it. 0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:49.920 I had a secret little car spot that was then 0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:52.680 an alleyway that was maybe a five minute walk, and 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.560 now that one's been taken up. So every morning, just 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:57.920 the anxiety of like, I don't know how I'm going 0:01:58.000 --> 0:01:59.840 to do this. I don't know where I'm going to park. 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:03.080 Will I walk fifty meters? Will I walk a kilometer? 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:03.960 I don't know? 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.000 And it really does park at home, mate. 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:10.200 It's literally gotten to the point where I've I've thought 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:13.000 I'm parked almost closer to my house now than I 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.160 am to the actual daycare. That's why I wanted to 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.320 get one of the electric bikes. 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:19.160 A cargo thing that there's a guy. 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:21.440 There's a guy that cruise around like near our place 0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:24.320 now with one. Next so I see him, I'll be like, hey, 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:26.239 I know this guy once one of them. I don't 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:30.040 think he's electric because it's quite flat, the Kindi's where 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.000 we are quite flat, man, this. 0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:36.840 Is very very hilly, So this morning obviously had to record. 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:38.919 The last thing I wanted to do, ASH was be 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:41.760 late for you, because I know how that makes you annoyed, 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.600 and an annoyed ASH is not good for anyone. 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.520 Don't make this about me, mate. 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.839 I was like, okay, time is running out.

And then Lola's at the 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.600 age now where she's got like a little bag. She 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.839 brings her knickknacks, and she dropped her bag of knickknacks 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.000 on the floor, like all of a sudden, there's like 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.040 dummies as toys, and I'm like, forget about it, like 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:06.400 in the car, on the floor, on the floor, and 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.840 so she's like, I've got to get a daddy, and 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:13.640 I'm like okay, like I'm watching No Man hard.

This is my idea. 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:20.520 It's like a Macca's drive through situation. You drive in, 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:25.160 someone opens the back door, the kids get ushered out. 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.159 You don't have to say bye if you don't want, 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:28.919 depend on what the car ride. 0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:31.200 You out in the way. There, the door shut, they 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.640 go into Kindy. You're gone. 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:37.480 I saw this the other day, like a valet at 0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.520 the high school. Right, that's what they do because it's 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:44.200 so busy. Right, they have I'm guessing the year twelve students. 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:47.600 They stand there with high vison. As your car pulls up, 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:52.479 the students open the door and let the kids out, 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.240 and they then close the door and usher the. 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:56.240 Kids genius into the school. 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:57.280 Genius. 0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:58.760 It's a well run operation. 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:00.479 And I was like, I've never heard of that. 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:02.200 I've never seen it before my life. They need to 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:03.080 have that for daycare. 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:06.800 Yeah, but like maybe not another child getting my child 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:10.880 out like maybe an adult put a worker a. 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.960 Toddlers like welcome at So anyway, I had to put 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:16.920 the kids back in the car. 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:22.800 Digg you strapping back in? Yeah, yeah, of course, and 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:24.720 this is not a visual medium. 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.920 I had to do another loop and traffic was backed up, 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:31.080 so it took me like fifteen minutes to do a 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:33.360 loop where I can get back in and why Then 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:35.440 I was like, fuck, I just need to make this quick. 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:38.440 And you feel bad. I know you'll say you'll sit 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.320 down and you'll go no, I never feel guilty, but 0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:42.000 when you're like, okay, see here's your bag as you 0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:43.960 want to bortle to go by, and well, I was 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.280 like one more heart and I'm like, hey, one my heart, Yeah, 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:47.960 say one more kiss. And I'm like I don't have 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.480 time for this. And then you're like, also, there's this 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:53.200 little brick wall where Marley likes to walk along. It 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:54.840 always walks on his brick wall. 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:58.600 Everything's a fucking game, Jesus, and just get to kindy now. 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:01.320 I was like, you're not walking across the wall and 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.440 she's in tears, and then you feel guilty at that 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:07.520 moment where you say goodbye. Yeah, you yelling and kids 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:10.280 very frazzled. 0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:13.280 So they were they were just off it. We and 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:14.280 you just got the hell out of it. 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.640 Of course, Molly spots like a little flower she wants 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:17.000 to pick up. 0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:18.400 But then you get a photo of them, and then 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.720 they're like they're having the happiest day of their fucking life. 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:23.480 Did you get a photo and then not happy? 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:24.800 No, they were just crying in the corner. 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.160 That reminds me of Oscar's sad boy day the other day. 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.559 Remember, so we had been away, we got back and 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.559 Oscar goes to two different kindergartens. One is like all 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.000 older kids and then the other ones like a mixture, 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:45.400 but logistically I don't know why, but they do. And 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:48.520 he likes the one on the Monday Tuesday, doesn't like 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.000 the one Wednesday. It's not that he doesn't like it, 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.480 he just likes the other one because all bigger kids 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.080 and there's little kids. And so we've been away, then 0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:58.040 we came back. On the Monday Tuesday, he went to 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.360 the one he really likes, and then I tried to 0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:01.960 take him on the Wednesdays to the one he didn't 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:03.960 lie and he as soon as he wakes up and 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:04.920 he goes what kN. 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:08.080 Is it today? And you're like, do you lie? Do 0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:08.640 you just lie? 0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:11.320 I don't lie there because there's two options when you 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:13.679 come out of the driveway, the way he wants to go, 0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:16.280 anyway he doesn't want to go, and he knows. 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:17.560 So it's like, I might as well just. 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:19.920 Rip the band aid off real early and try and 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:21.800 smooth him into it. 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:22.920 Anyway. 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.400 The other day he just wasn't having it so slow. 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:27.040 I even said, look, we'll tell you what. We'll go 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:29.360 a little bit late and I'll have Popper pick you 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.680 up really early, so you'll only be there for a 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:32.360 couple of hours. 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.240 You'll see the one or two people that you play 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:35.160 with there that you like. 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:36.800 Does he respond to that? 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:38.840 All the other kids are probably anything, what do you mean? 0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:39.600 He doesn't like us? 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.520 And he's like not really having it and whatever. And 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.120 then we got there, pulled out the front and because 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:48.880 it was a bit later, the kids were already out 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:51.960 in the play ground area, which is awesome. They're already 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:53.960 playing him like that's a good sign because they're going 0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:56.959 on the slide. They're pushing cars down the slide. And 0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:58.520 one of the kids he plays all the time was 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.880 right there and he goes Oscars back and I'm like. 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:04.360 I fucking love you, dream perfect.

And I 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:30.080 was like, yep, fortunately it is a daycare day today. No, 0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.800 and then she's all like she was expecting it to 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:35.400 be the daddy day. So she flips out, runs out 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:38.280 the room, and I fall back asleep. 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:43.080 Not worried at all, like Laura being like, mat, come 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:43.880 and get this kid. 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:48.920 I'm sorry about that ash before we go into ordinary 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:51.440 parent Yes, there's a message that I want to flag 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:54.840 with you, and it it didn't make it. We've done nothing. Okay, 0:16:56.120 --> 0:16:58.440 didn't make sense to me. I was a bit confused. 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:01.800 So a dad has written in and he says, currently 0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:04.959 the time of writing this message, it's two fifty am. 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:08.320 Why did no one tell me that babies make so 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:12.480 many fucking loud noises whilst they're sleeping.

Yeah, when they're sleeping, they're sleeping. 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:30.040 Yeah, I mean Oscar was Oscar was so noisy, like 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:33.600 when we we bring him home from the hospital. And 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:35.240 first of all, we all were in the same room 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:37.040 because that's you know, that's what's advised. 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:40.080
