Daycare sent dirty underwear home….. turd included 🥲

Hi all! I’m looking for some perspective here. My daughter has been potty training for about three weeks now. It’s been going pretty well both at home and school, slow and steady. Today, we were given a ziplock bag at pick-up with a pair of dirty underwear, which is what they do when she has an accident so we could wash them at home. Upon opening the bag in my laundry room, an overwhelming smell of poop slapped me right in the face. And there it was, the turd still sitting perfectly in the inside of her underwear. This is the second time this has happened which surprised me, because the first time I assumed it was a genuine oversight and that her educator simply got distracted.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this some daycare thing I’m unaware of? I realize that it’s obviously my job to clean the underwear thoroughly, but I would’ve expected that the turd would’ve at least gotten flushed? I’m somewhere between feeling that sending someone home with literal poop in a bag is completely insane, while also trying to be mindful that educators already have a lot on their plate and might not have the time to remove it.

Are my expectations too high, or is this as crazy as I think it is?! Let me know cause I’m at a loss 🥲
