    Termination Letter - Is It Really That Simple

    So I have decide to give one of my families the gift of no. Short version of the story,

    unless I mirror this 12 year old all the other children say stop that to him often. Nobody

    will tell me what he should stop. Then Wednesday when I was giving him a time out

    because he ran into the street (I do not have a fenced yard.) DCB told me “you know the

    more you do this the more my parents are going to want to send me somewhere else they

    are already looking.” Then yesterday when I was talking to DCB about talking nicely to

    the other, children he made it clear that he is not capable of that because, almost

    everything I do and say is “unfair”. DCB could not explain this or give any examples. By

    the way Mom has already decide to keep DCB home over Christmas break to be with

    older brother that is attending a local Jr. college. So by giving the notice now they realy

    have at least a 4 week notice.


    Does the below letter sound good It almost seamed to simple tpo write.




    Dear DCM, December 2, 2011

    Copy of this letter given to DCD


    After much thought, consideration and conversations with DCB, it has come to

    my attention that I will not be able to provide a daycare environment that both DCB and

    I are happy with. Therefore, I have decided that Friday, December 16, 2011 will be the

    last day I can provide daycare service for DCB. I wish you the best of luck finding

    daycare service will fit your needs and desires.




    Sincerely
    ME

    I personally would not mention that you are discussing any of this with the dcb. If he is young enoug to need care, then the decisions about the care should not have anything to do with him.

        From past experiences with older boys, I will not take one over the age of 10.

        Your letter is short and sweet, to the point.

          I agree with pp!

          No need to mention that you or the DCB are not happy.
          Just state you can no longer provide care.

          If she asks you why, you can tell her you feel that your place is structured more towards younger children and that you have found it difficult to meet his needs.

          Also agree no kids over 10
