Parent Experiences
"Irgendwann musste ich in der Nähe dieses Kindergartens sein. Nachdem ich meine Arbeit beendet hatte, wollte ich mein Kind sehen und besuchen, wenn auch nur für kurze Zeit. Obwohl ich ihn begrüßte, begrüßte mich die Dame dort nicht und tat so, als würde sie ihren Feind sehen. Außerdem erlaubte sie mir nicht, zu lange zu bleiben (sie dachte, sie hätte einen Grund). Leider war sie keine freundliche Dame. Ich habe mein Kind in einem anderen Kindergarten angemeldet. Der Kindergarten und sein Personal sind auch nicht so nett."
