I have terminated before but thankfully I have never had to terminate someone immediately so I am a little out of my comfort zone. I have in my contract that I am able to terminate immediately. But it doesn't state the reason I need. So I don't know if I can term as of tonight.
Situation:
Dcb (4.5) has been here 1.5 years. Mom lost her job 5 months ago and was using assistance to pay me but they stopped helping her now. So she moved to 2 days a week, giving me 2 weeks notice. She then started sending dcb to preschool since they offer it for free and her words "I can't handle him, I am sending him to preschool to keep my sanity" then without notice changed it to 1 day a week (preschool only 4 days a week) This DCM is easy to get along with but not as a dcp! She has a hard time following rules and think they don't apply to her. Dcb has always been a little on the wild side but nothing too bad. Since starting school it is like a 180. He has been extremely difficult. Dcb put a toy down and my DS then picked it up. Dcb was very upset took the toy away and hit DS with it and cutting his forehead open. Dh was home and took him to the doctor. DS now has stitches. With so many problems with this family I would just like to be done and not deal with it anymore. Since my contract (currently) doesn't cover this do I have to give 2 weeks notice? Another problem is the family lives 3 houses down. So making it even more difficult. As much as I would like to "let loose" and tell them everything I feel and what went wrong I'm afraid to do that since they live so close.

I would add that you can terminate at any time, for any reason. I have NEVER had a parent question that and it is in my contract.
