How to Handle DCM

[daycare]

is there a full mooon?? really? People have been acting so KRAZY lately......even my teens have been a little fruit the loops.....




Sorry that you got put through this. I have learned the hard way that we have to set the tone from the start. Don't let parents start out doing things that you will not be ok with.

I hope that you are feeling better now that this has stopped, but I would not be ready to expect a visit from licensing.

TGIF.............:hug:

Horrible week! I talked to the mother again about the issues and how they need to be fixed. She cursed at me and left. Came back the next morning and went back to old ways. I kindly reminded her that she needs to stop and you won't be able to do this when the child goes to school. She got extremely upset and said that if I try to enforce this "rule" that she is going to report me. I asked what does she think she's going to report?! She said that you are not allowing me to see my child while in your care and I will let them know that this makes me think you are doing something illegal. They will then come to your house and investigate you. I then lost it. I told her to get out of my house and don't ever come back! She was then extremely apologetic and said she can't miss work today or she may get fired. I said no one threatens me like that. Get out of my house and don't come back. It stinks about the money and I really like the child but I'm done!

happyface. Good for you!!! Maybe getting fired will be her natural consequence for bad behavior! Ain't NOBODY got time for THAT!!!::
Yes- I would call licensing and give a heads up they may get a call and be ready
Happy Friday!!!!

Holy moly donut shop! What a nice reality check for her that she is not the boss of someone elses business.

Like a previous poster said, ain't nobody got time for that. Respect is a two way street and she needs to keep it moving.

Definitely! If she is crazy enough to think she can report you because she decides to show up way too early every morning to your home baby him and whine about her life and waste your time while you have things to do while prepping for the day, she may be capable of doing something crazy...er.

But WOW! That's awesome that you told her off and kicked her out. No one who threatens you or constantly breaks the rules of your home and business should be allowed in your house! It's people like her that are the reason why rules (and laws) have to be continuously reviewed and adjusted.

Call your licensor ASAP and report what happened. This woman is psycho enough to report for nothing and even though you've done nothing wrong, it's a huge hassle for them to come out. At least they'll have a heads up.
