My whiner 1 year old DCK who had not been away from Mom until a month ago.....
He's a sickly child, parents don't practice very good hygiene with him. Always a fever, runny nose, etc. On Friday he was diagnosed with pink eye. Yesterday they brought him in and I could tell he wasn't feeling well. He was crying and VERY fussy, more than normal even. Took a temp and it was 98.9- Later it was lower at 98.7. Put him down for a nap in the afternoon and when I got him up at 4:55 he was 101.9 and his eyes were still gooey. Immediately started texting the phone numbers on his form and one of them responded, "oh wow, had no idea he was so sick. we are coming right away." They arrived 10 minutes later...give them the run down of what happened all day with him and I was told they would be staying home with him the next day.
Much to my surprise, guess who shows up at 7:15am for drop off!? I refused them care and the mom came in and was pissed. Said she was clueless he was that hot yesterday...What? Do they think I am that stupid? She then slams the door in my face and calls 15 minutes later to say they are going elsewhere because they feel like I don't want him there and he's not happy here. I did not return the deposit but refunded next weeks fees ($95) for 50 hours infant care.
Good riddance!
