    I talked to mom via FB until 11 last night. mom requested I keep my dd away from her child and to not nap together either. She wouldn't give me any details. I denied care for today bc whatever is going on I don't feel comfortable watching her until or if it is resolved. Her 4 yo daughter was mildly hurt yesterday. She jumped on the foot of the recliner while my dd was pulling the lever. Her elbows were a little red, everything else was ok. Her a dd are best friends, great parents.

    I really really don't want to waste my weekend on this! I don't want to ruin my Mother's Day!

        Oh well, that changes all the rules. Eff her then. My own children always came first and if a dcm ever had a beef against one, I'd be looking for a replacement asap. Sounds like helicopter mom is over reacting to what happened between your dd and her dd.

          Oh brother... What a waste of time! Can you imagine being in a public setting and her trying to tell you this? And to not allow them to play together at YOUR HOME DAYCARE?? Ugh!! I can see wanting to talk about what happened and such but she sounds like she's just pushing the blame elsewhere to make this work until Aug.

            just saw the update. if she is not giving details, then she can leave now. that is a Lic complaint waiting to happen and you don't need the liability risk.

                  In that case....no way to any kind of after hours meeting and no to watching her child anymore effective immediately. No way would I agree to keep my child away from a daycare child. It is your child's home.

                    On a limb here. Could she be concerned that her dd has been showing signs of sexual abuse at home, and she doesn't want her daughter to spread the issue to other kids?

                    The problem with going out to coffee, is that now you're stuck there, in a public place, till the coffee's gone, or you can come up with a reason to leave. I'd have my own child gone at pick up today, and just say, we need to talk now. What's up. Get it over with. Or have her buckle her kid in the car and you talk at the front of the car.

                    This isn't sounding good.

                      its like the Jerry Maguire movie. when he wants to deliver bad news he takes them into public because they can not react horribly there.

                      I would demand a call or I would stop all services from today.

                        You did the right thing not having the kids in care today. If she is throwing accusations or thinking about it, you don't want to open yourself up to any more opportunities for her to complain.

                          And it seems like this isn't going to be a good fit for her dd anymore

                            This sounds like something sexual. I would meet.

                                This sounds very troubling. I wouldn't meet with her in public. I would communicate with her in ways that document everything.

                                I also would not accept her child back into my care.
