Hi everyone sorry it's been awhile but here's why!
I just wanted to share ……Hopefully this will help anyone out.
For the past few months I have been completely stressed out. I was ready to walk away from it all.
I absolutely was so tired of doing this job. The children were just awful. I was breaking up fights constantly. I couldn’t do any thing! Not one art project, circle time, flashcards, change a diaper NOTHING without breaking up a fight. It was terrible over here. I didn’t like it at all. I started buying more equipment because I thought maybe I was lacking somewhere, that everything I have learned was wrong. I started talking more to a friend who is a director at an NAEYC center. Oh I was just beside myself with what the issue could be and I was certain it was me! That I was doing something wrong.
Turns out that NOPE it wasn’t ME! It was one of my boys! I termed him last week and WHAT A DIFFERENCE I HAVE MY DAY CARE BACK! I HAVE MY SANITY BACK!
I had to term him as he was too violent with the other children. Every time I turned my back for one second he would go after someone. It was a no win situation. The final straw was when he was mad at me he picked up a toy and threw it hitting one of my babies in the head and also got a serious complaint from one of my mom’s saying her child was really afraid of this boy even having bad dreams about him. That was it for me.
You see I decided a long time ago that if I ever had the opportunity to open my own center I would not tolerate violent behavior amongst the children. I have dealt with such behaviors for years because at a center they would never term no matter how horrible the child was. I will not work like that anymore. I am trained up the wazoo on how to deal with behavior issues but that is too much of a stressful environment on all involved. I don’t want to focus on the negative child all day I want to sit and play games with all of my children!!!!!! That is what’s going on….I am now eating pretend pizza, making pretend phone calls, doing all sorts of art projects and circle time and everything else so YAY I HAVE MY DAY CARE BACK!!!!!
It is sooooooo calm and peaceful again and my children are napping and I have a lunch break again!!!!!!
Sometimes it's not you that's at fault but maybe you have that one certain child. I don't care about the money because no amount of money is worth stressing my self out over.
I hope this helps someone out that is in the same kind of situation.
Yes I did try and work with this child but it only got worse instead of better.
