    When I say your child needs to be here PRIOR to snack time in order to have snack, that means they need to be here BEFORE snack time. Not right at snack time when the plates are fixed and kids are sitting down eating, but BEFORE.

    Then I'M the one that gets the dirty look when I have to tell dcp that they've missed snack.

    Grr. I'm in a mood today :/

          DCG was up from 3-6 this morning...she's 3.5! This happens approx 1x/week. Usually she naps for 1/2 hr and is good to go, I think today is going to be different

              Sounds like you get to send three kids home today.

              I would let them go for that. Instant termination for dope and drop.

                I unfortunately I work in a center so no can do. That’s not grounds for termination

                  Sad. :hug:

                  There is a huge risk in accepting kids on laxatives into care. Hope they have excellent insurance.

                      Some parents don't want to have to deal with the poopy diapers that result.

                        Dcm said dcg (most difficult child) wouldn't be coming today...guess who shows up this morning.

                        Picks her up early to go to her physical therapy and says she won't be bringing her back. Guess who just messaged me and said she's bringing her back.

                        Ugh, never fails.

                            Yes.

                            One drop-off and one pick-up, per day.

                              DCM wants 3.5yo nap cut in half because she is up for 4 hrs in the middle of the night. I don't think nap time is the problem...sounds like a parenting problem!

                                "That sounds difficult. How much exercise is she getting after dinner, DCM? You should start there. Our naptime schedule is not up for debate."
