DCD Still Sending Emails

[Little Star75]

So I get an email form DCP requesting some items he left here. Diapers?? Ummm I been buying the diapers, zippy cup? Umm I returned it since I provide all brand new, movie? Ummm... Yes I have that. Then at the end DCP parent said let me know what time either myself or spouse can stop by?

So I replied with my email and said our spouse can stop by after 5pm, then I get replied " oh my spouse is busy so I will email when I'm ready to go?

I don't want DCP to come by anymore but how do I tell him in a professional, nice way that I don't want him here?

can you mail it to them?

IMHO, you need to stop responding with this man. Tell him you will mail the movie, then send it registered. Do not have any further communication with them.

Dear DCP - I will be happy to mail you the movie. You do not need to stop by. Thank you, Little Star

This exactly.

They actually live 1 block from me

I would mail it anyways and cut all contact. This man is still trying to show you who's the boss.

I would tell them that you will leave it on your porch.

I would tell them that you will leave it on your porch.

That's what I would do too... send him an email saying that if it's there tomorrow morning, you will donate it.

Tell him "Thank you, I hope you have time to pick it up" and then never respond to him again.

But I rather have the spouse pick it up. I also just got a visit from licensing for a call this DCP made. This is too much!

[sharlan]

IMHO, you don't want anyone to pick it up. You do not want them on your property. You want them to go away and let you run your business without the stress they cause.

I agree on mailing it even though they live on your block. I would probably call the police and ask if they can have someone come and take it to them. Explain it is becoming a harassing situation and that you just want it to end.

If they live that close and you know their address I would just drop it off in their mailbox/slot (why waste money on postage- they're not worth $2.38 of postage fee) when you know they are/will be home and then after you are a good distance text them: "The movie is in your mailbox. Have a nice day"- kill them with kindness just make sure to record the day and time. Or just have someone (someone they don't know- a friend of yours but not a daycare parent) that can just knock on the door and say "**** is returning it" and just leave; that way you have a witness that can vouch for you that you returned it in case of anything else. But at this point I would avoid as much direct contact with them as possible.

They aren't even worth the time to go drop off the items. I already responded to his email letting him know that his spouse has until tomorrow morning to pick up the items or I will donate them.

I personally have had a situation that ended bad years ago, when I termed a family. I simply told the dcm to come get the personal items & that they would be placed on my porch. I wanted no more contact with this individual and yet wanted the items returned to them. It was simple and she picked up the belongings the next day and we did not need to have any further contact.
