Has anyone ever had a child that acted like this?
I have a 3yo dcb who is the best behaved child in my care. Honestly, one of the best behaved children that I have ever had in care. He is kind, polite, listens well, eats well, naps well, etc. I wish I could clone him.
The SECOND he sees his parent/s at pickup, it is a different kid. He is screaming on the floor temper tantrum, hitting, kicking, etc. Mom says that this behavior has become so severe at home he throws massive 'rage' fits where he doesn't cry, he yells/screams, throws things and breaks things. Over the weekend it was so severe Mom put him in in his room with everything removed and he continued to carry on for over an hour.
I just received an email from Mom essentially blaming me for his behavior. Nothing has changed at home, so it MUST be daycare. Um, WHAT!? Nothing has changed here and he behaves DRASTICALLY different for me.
I have no idea what to even say in response to this, as I am so dumbfounded that his behavior on SATURDAY EVENING, (or ANY day/evening) has ANYTHING to do with something that happened during his day on THURSDAY(T-Th). He speaks well, and has never voiced anything negative to Mom about me/kids, etc other than "I no wanna go Miss. ****** house, I no wike NAP!" He tells me the SAME thing, and then falls asleep in 5 minutes.
