1st Time Getting Termed

[lvt77]

This is the first time I have ever been termed. All had to do with my other post about DCB 4.5 still inb pull-ups.

So My question is, what do I say to the other parents, because I know that they are going to ask where is so and so??

They have two weeks, how do I ride this out without letting it get ugly.

See other thread for my advice......

Don't. I just say they are no longer attending. If they ask further I just say,... Due to privacy issues...... I only can say they aren't here but everything is fine.

Just say as little as possible to the parents you termed and don't tell others anything. say things didn't work out or there are privacy issues you can't say anything. And change the subject.

I agree. Don't say anything. Some parents will ask and you just say that they are no longer attending.

It must be in the air... the 1st time I have ever been termed was last Friday and I've been wondering the same thing, what to tell the other dcp's if they ask. I do agree with the others and keep it as vague as possible and may even tell them due to privacy issues I'm not at liberty to say... but I'm wondering if that would be a red flag to a dcp and make them want to ask more questions? Where do you draw the line?

Just say "oh family stuff"

Tell them they didnt wanna stay at your daycare because you REFUSED to change a 4 year olds diaper and they where to lazy to potty train him :: just kidding. Just tell them he is no loger in your daycare and leave it at that.

Thank you all for the advice. My group is small and so is the town that I live in. The kind where everyone knows your business. I think I will just tell them that they had family issues, which is true and leave it at that..

lmao that cracks me up..

so I now know not to share any information, I guess I am also just worried about the whole 2 weeks getting crazy. Already this morning they were 30min ealry. Something they do all the time show up early pick up late. Should I just let this go since they are leaving and live the next two weeks in misery??

I wouldn't let it go, it's going to make you miserable. If they show up early I'd politely tell them that their contracted time is **. You'll be ready for them then. But, then again if they've showed up early before and you've allowed it then they'll think you're just telling them this now for retribution and they might try their own retribution. So, I don't know. Maybe ignore what I just said.
