I am just completely floored by this new family that started care last week. I have done daycare for over six years and I have NEVER encountered such a rude, undisciplined, disrespectful child in my life!!!! 
So this child started Thursday. He is nine years old but only going into third grade. Apparently he's been held back twice. I didn't want to judge and they seemed nice so I accepted them into care. I am now realizing he was held back due to behaviors. So his very first day here, he and my son and another boy are playing outside. All nine years old. My son and another boy come in and tell me the new child was swearing. The new boy denied it and lied right to my face. I didn't want to seem like I was taking sides and I didn't hear the words, so giving the benefit of the doubt I sent them back outside. In 5 minutes I heard the child call the other boys a "faggot", "b@$tard", and "little fuc$ers". So I said from that point on he needed to be in my line of supervision at ALL times because being outside alone was a privledge that he had now lost. He told me that was fu($in stupid. At that point I called his mother and told her to come pick him up. I said if he was to return she would have to have a very stern talk with him about manners, respect, and appropriate talk and behavior.
Friday he comes and brings pokemon and DS games. I say it's fine but no trading. So what does he do???? He trades and then decides he wants them back and starts having a tantrum and calling the kids names again. I take the cards away. I told mom they were not allowed to be brought any longer.
So today doesn't the kid show up at my door with pokemon cards??????
I reminded them nicely that he could not bring them and he caused way to many issues with them. He began to argue with me!!!! 
Mom did nothing... So I ask mom to bring the cards home. Then he begins argueing with mom. They argued for forty minutes on my front step as parents dropped off children and witnessed this
After 40 minutes mom agrees he can keep the cards.
What????!!!!!! This is my house, my rules. So now basically mom has allowed the kid to disrespect me and then disrespected me herself!!!! And in my own home!!!!! Ugh, and then I gave them termination notice and she looked shocked and said maybe we could talk after work. UGH!!!!
