Fyi, i looked up Liechtenstein (it's called RESEARCH), and it turns out there's actually alot to complain about.

1. The country, if you could even call it that, is domineered by a monarch. Ruled by a prince in particular.

2. Liechtenstein is recognised as a tax haven. In that regard, they're pretty much the Bahamas of Northern Europe.

3. Liechtenstein has had close ties to the Austrian Empire at least until WW1.

4. It's National Union party was sympathetic to the Nazi cause during WW2.

5. The whole country is basically a free-market no-regulation Libertarian heaven for corporate tax cheats - it's the only "country" in the world with more registered corporations than citizens.

I could go on, but i think you get it.

My personal advice to day care providers who're skidish about hiring white males: hire ONLY guys with tattoos, visable piercings, long gothic hair or a mohawk, who clearly listen to either Metal or Punk rock. B/c THOSE guys already take much unwarrented shit from society, i garantee you they will NOT be molesters!

The first daycare I worked at, they didn't let me help with the bathrooming activities, until I got tired of the resentment of my female coworkers and informed the director that if the women had to do it, I should have to do it too. Besides, the women tried to make the boys sit down to pee, and that isn't natural. That was also when I found out how female teachers could be vindictive when I chose not to agree to a relationship.

I almost worked at a daycare that was a corporate daycare for some tech company in Beaverton. The center owners wanted to hire me, but made me meet the HR manager for the company. She looked at me and said,"I can't see why a man would want to work with kids and could never hire one." She actually said that to my face, and guess who didn't get hired. When I filed a complaint to the Bureau of Labor, I got a check for something like $65.00. Quite a stiff fine for discrimination.

The last center I worked at, I started with the school age program until the director begged me to take over the three's class, as they could not keep a woman teacher in there longer than a couple weeks. When the director was out on maternity leave, the area manager found out I worked with the younger kids, and all of a sudden, I started getting anonymous complaints, and threats to my employment. After an incident where I was not informed about a new child's particular history and the parent not informed of company policy, they tossed me out with yesterday's garbage. An administrative judge decided they had no reason to fire me and could see blatant discrimination. I could have and should have sued.

Dave, it is a great job, working with kids, but you will face plenty more than you have already. I know.
