I have a 2 year old DCG who lives with both parents and grandparents (Totally spoiled and extremely aggressive too!)

I am planning on terming soon because she is so aggressive with the other kids I often have to separate her from them.

All that aside, DCPS and DCGPS drop off at random times ALL THE TIME so she can get her much needed beauty rest. They don't like to wake her up to come here if the DCGPS are off that day. I have told them they need to call if they plan to drop off later than 9h30am.

Well this morning I need to take my DS to his kindy evaluation and my backup just called to cancel! I will need to take all the DCKS with me...uhg.

DCG is not here yet and no phone call, like always. Should I just leave and have them show up to an empty house? I would MUCH rather not have to take her with me since she is such a nightmare to take care of and I have warned them in the past that they need to call if they drop off late. (Some mornings they drop her off at 7h45am)

If you need to leave, go! You should not alter your plans for a late drop off or early pick up.

[BumbleBee]

I'd leave. JMO though.

I have it in my policies if they are a no call no show, that after 30 minutes from their contracted drop off time, I expect they will not arrive and I MAY not be available for drop off.

If you have this in yur policies already, then leave and go do what yu need to do.

If yu don't have a contracted drop off time, get one drawn up and out the above policy notice in a policy addendum.

first what is thier scheduled time. If they are not their, write a note that you waited and when they didn't show up at their scheduled time, that you assumed that they were not coming. I would then leave.
I had to do this once because the parents just didn't get it that I don't have time to sit and wait all day while they get their act together to come over.
I would also ask them if they need a time change, if they arrive before their new scheduled time I would charge them an early fee if they come early

[crunchymama]

I'd tape a note to the door and go.

If you have already explained that they need to let you know if they will be late, then leave. When they ask, say you didn't think they were coming since you know they would be respectful and call as you requested.
They are being completely disrespectful to you, your home and your time!

I would call or text the parents informing them that you are leaving. Do not let them talk you into waiting a few minutes until grandparents get there. Say you are all packed up n out the door n this is a courtesy call to inform you that you at e not there. You still need to keep things professional regardless of their actions.

If they have a history of dropping off at random times and it has been permitted, then I think a quick call or text to let them know you will be away would be best. If you are planning to term soon, keep things as professional as possible to avoid additional drama.
