I have made the decision for my sanity, and to help our days run smoother, to terminate 2 of the families in my care. It was VERY hard for me to choose and I have been contemplating this for months, but I have to do it. I have a great group of kiddos and parents, and really adore them all. That's why I've putting off doing this for so long. I am registered to care for 6 FT/2PT/4SA, but have 4FT/3PT/2SA and am just overwhelmed. This never used to bother me before, but I've had a crew all above 2 for so long, introducing the 2 infants has been a difficult adjustment.
I've been struggling since May hoping it would work out, and it just hasn't. So what do you say to families that are great, but you need to get rid of to downsize?
