    But first, I'd probably be inclined to write up what has and HAS NOT happened, what parents reaction was, then have them sign it, along with their termination notice.

    It just sets off alarm bells to me... I can see someone getting termed, then turn around out of spite and say every allegation is true just because they got termed.
    Yes. Please do this first.

      DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT, every single day

      ASAP, term the child. Things can and will turn bad in a heartbeat.

      Personally, I would not work with parents who find this type of lying acceptable.

        I would look at it this way:
        What is your weekly wage for watching them?
        What is your husbands reputation worth?
        Unless you make more in wages than the worth of his good name, then you terminate.

          ^^^^^ what she said.

          BTDT and if I could warn someone and save them the headache and heartache my family and I went through I would..

          We are not sugar coating any of this. There is nothing worse that could happen in your business than this.

          I could tell you a few horror stories that I have heard about children who were lying about such accusation as this little girl. A lie this child tells could mean the difference between a family member of yours spending time or life behind bars.

          If you need help with terminating this family there are many members on here who will help you do it in a very professional manner. Just ask

            I didn't read all off the comments but you all might remember when I had a parent flip on me and falsely accuse once I termed them for telling me I was wrong for not giving dcb breakfast when he came after breakfast was over. I would term. You never know what she could say. Better safe than sorry.

              Called and told dcm I could not watch dck anymore because of the risk. She didn't seem shocked and just said "Ok, I understand". Shortest conversation ever. Spent a lot more time stressing about it than I should've I guess.

                Also I have all the previous conversations on text with dcm, so I do have some form of documentation of incidents leading up to the term.

                  Wow. Good job. I bet that's a lot of stress off your shoulders.
                  Hugs to you and hoping you refill the spot with a great family.

                    You made the right decision. It only takes one false accusation to destroy your lives.
